Re: Using italic font for TextScript messes up \dynamic display

[Noeck]

Hi,

this diverged from the original question. I am also interested in an
answer, so here is a MWE. Commenting in the second last line (\override
…) shows the problem:


\version "2.19.48"

#(define (make-dynamic-extra dynamic string)
     (make-music
       'AbsoluteDynamicEvent
       'text
         (markup #:concat (
               dynamic #:hspace 1
               #:normal-text #:italic string))))

ppSub =
    -\tweak self-alignment-X #-0.75
    #(make-dynamic-extra "pp" "sub.")

{ c''4\ppSub d'' e'' f' }

\layout {
  % The next line does not only change the additional
  % text "sub." but also the "pp":
  %\override DynamicText.font-name = "Arial"
}

Cheers,
Joram
