Re: Header fields in custom footer

[Noeck]

Dear Andrew,

thanks for your reply. But I think that's not the point. My example was
too minimal as I assumed that it does not matter if I put it in a
\markup or in the footer properties of the paper block.

So my question remains: How can I use string manipulations and header
properties in my footer markup?

A better minimal example is this:


\version "2.19.50"

\header {
  composer = "Mozart"
}

\paper {
  oddFooterMarkup = \markup #(format "Composer: ~a"
    (markup->string (markup (#:fromproperty 'header:composer))))
}

It compiles but the composer is not shown.


Cheers,
Joram
