Re: Header fields in custom footer

[Noeck]

Hi Harm,

hm, I am still not getting what I want. I fear that's what you meant by
the limitations concerning the $defaultheader.

This is a minimal example to show the problem:

\version "2.19.50"

%%% from included file
\header {
  author = "default author"  % just in case there is no author later
}
\paper {
  oddFooterMarkup =
  \markup \column {
    \fill-line {
      \on-the-fly #first-page
        \concat {
                #(ly:modules-lookup (list $defaultheader) 'author "")
}}}}
%%% end of included file

\header {
  author = "real author"
  % this is the author that should appear in the footer
}

{ a }


Can this be solved?
