Hi Bruno,

to avoid creating a new markup from scratch you can use LSR snippet no. 869 <http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=869> to modify the default. Example attached.

Yours best,
Simon

Hi all,

This is my first post on this list, and my first week using Lilypond for a real project. Learning a lot in a compressed amount of time... ;-)

I am trying to get metronome markings with "ca." before the number, but without bold face characters. How can I cancel the bold face font inside a \tempo command?

The snippet below shows what I've got so far. Bar 2 is what I'm getting by using \markup inside \tempo. Bar 3 shows what I would like to get. I'm happy to use Bar 3 solution if that's the only way, but I suppose there is a solution from inside \tempo?

Thanks for any tips!

Bruno
