RE: How to Get Line Breaks in the Tagline

[Fairchild]

Ted -

Appendix C of the Users' Guide says "\" is the escape character and \n will
cause a new line.  If you can make this work, please post the clue.

Here's a way that does work for me in v 2.4.3:

tagline = \markup \column < "First line" "Second line" "Third line" >

                              - Bruce

Subject: How to Get Line Breaks in the Tagline


Is there a way to get a line break to appear in the tagline? I saw an
archived message which implied that putting a \break in the string would do
this, but it did not seem to work. I am using LilyPond version 2.4.6 under
Cygwin. I've attached an example source file showing what I've tried.
