Re: Force Lilypond to preserve vertical order of TextScripts?

[Saul Tobin]

I'm actually surprised that ordering behavior isn't documented. It's so consistent 99% of the time I just assumed it was officially defined behavior.

Excellent! Be sure to share it with the list.

I've actually never had that expectation! (Perhaps I should have? I guess I just assumed it works like every other post-event in Lilypond does, which is that the display order is not determined by the order of entry, but instead by a rather complex combination of parameters known to me and otherwise.)

Cheers,
Kieren.
