Hi,
if you use \draw-circle, then the resulting cirlce will have extents
in X-axis: [-radius +radius], in Y-axis [-radius +radius]
Ensure the content which you want to put in the circle is centered as
well, i.e. use \vcenter \halign #CENTER
\markup { \combine \draw-circle #1.5 #.1 ##f \vcenter \halign #CENTER "2" }
HTH,
Harm
