How to move markup horizontally

[Joseph Srednicki]

Hello:

 

I am trying to move markup horizontally. See the following example:

 

\version "2.19.58"

{

  \relative c' {d4_\markup{\pad-x #7.0 {\line{R.\dynamic{p}}}}  d d d}

}

 

In this example, I would like to move the markup horizontally to the left so that it starts beneath the time signature. Can someone please tell me how to move markup horizontally?

 

I searched the documentation, but \pad is the only thing the I could find. If there something in the documentation that I missed about shifting markup horizontally, please feel free to point me to the appropriate reference.

 

Thanks.
