Re: centering title and THEN adding something to the left of it

[Alex Loomis]

This is really minor, but I was noticing that the positioning of the spaces in "Fairy Tale Ending" gives it the illusion of being a little too far to the left. Is there a way to center lines on a word instead of centering the entire phrase?

Hi all,

These are extremely clever (and nearly identical) solutions — thanks!

Welcome.

Just so you can see the fruits of your labour(s), here’s the top of the first page of the piano/conductor score of “Fairy Tale Ending” (one of my stage musicals):

I’m still tweaking various format things… but to my eye that titling block is a home run.

Thanks again,

Kieren.

p.s. There are four musicals I need to engrave over the next six months or so. Once I have all the relevant stylesheets (e.g., musical_pianoconductor.ly, musical_vocalbook.ly, musical_score.ly) ready for public consumption, I’ll be sure to post them somewhere like openlilylib for comments and improvements.
