3.1.70 LyricText
LyricText objects are created by: Lyric_engraver.
Standard settings:
extra-spacing-height(pair of numbers): '(0.2 . -0.2)In the horizontal spacing problem, we increase the height of each item by this amount (by adding the ‘car’ to the bottom of the item and adding the ‘cdr’ to the top of the item). In order to make a grob infinitely high (to prevent the horizontal spacing problem from placing any other grobs above or below this grob), set this to
(-inf.0 . +inf.0).extra-spacing-width(pair of numbers): '(0.0 . 0.0)In the horizontal spacing problem, we pad each item by this amount (by adding the ‘car’ on the left side of the item and adding the ‘cdr’ on the right side of the item). In order to make a grob take up no horizontal space at all, set this to
(+inf.0 . -inf.0).font-series(symbol):
'mediumSelect the series of a font. Choices include
medium,bold,bold-narrow, etc.font-size(number):
1.0The font size, compared to the ‘normal’ size.
0is style-sheet’s normal size,-1is smaller,+1is bigger. Each step of 1 is approximately 12% larger; 6 steps are exactly a factor 2 larger. If the context propertyfontSizeis set, its value is added to this before the glyph is printed. Fractional values are allowed.parent-alignment-X(number):
'()Specify on which point of the parent the object is aligned. The value
-1means aligned on parent’s left edge,0on center, and1right edge, in X direction. Other numerical values may also be specified - the unit is half the parent’s width. If unset, the value fromself-alignment-Xproperty will be used.self-alignment-X(number):
0Specify alignment of an object. The value
-1means left aligned,0centered, and1right-aligned in X direction. Other numerical values may also be specified - the unit is half the object width.skyline-horizontal-padding(number):
0.1For determining the vertical distance between two staves, it is possible to have a configuration which would result in a tight interleaving of grobs from the top staff and the bottom staff. The larger this parameter is, the farther apart the staves are placed in such a configuration.
stencil(stencil):
lyric-text::printThe symbol to print.
text(markup):
#<procedure #f (grob)>Text markup. See Formatting text.
vertical-skylines(pair of skylines):
#<unpure-pure-container #<primitive-procedure ly:grob::vertical-skylines-from-stencil> >Two skylines, one above and one below this grob.
word-space(dimension, in staff space):
0.6Space to insert between words in texts.
X-align-on-main-noteheads(boolean):
#tIf true, this grob will ignore suspended noteheads when aligning itself on NoteColumn.
X-offset(number):
ly:self-alignment-interface::aligned-on-x-parentThe horizontal amount that this object is moved relative to its X-parent.
Y-extent(pair of numbers):
#<unpure-pure-container #<primitive-procedure ly:grob::stencil-height> >Extent (size) in the Y direction, measured in staff-space units, relative to object’s reference point.
This object supports the following interface(s): font-interface, grob-interface, item-interface, lyric-syllable-interface, rhythmic-grob-interface, self-alignment-interface and text-interface.
