Hello,
I'm presently writing an orchestral score an have a question about
\markup :
I have to instruct 1st violins to put the mute several bars before
they have to play.
I've tried to attach a markup to a R2., but it does not work (why ?),
Because centering rests is a bad idea, period, but it is an especially
bad idea in a score of any description. Bad ideas just don't deserve
equal time. Beats should be aligned vertically, and that is the way it
is done in this century. It's not better because it's newer, it's just
better.
