I'm afraid I've misled you here. Although MetronomeMark layout object
supposedly supports the break-alignable-interface, according to the IR, it
seems not to behave in the same way as RehearsalMark and BarNumber layout
objects. Sorry about that; I should have checked more carefully before making
the suggestion.
However, you may be able to obtain a satisfactory placing by overriding
self-alignment-X, eg
\version "2.19.3"
{
R1 |
\override Score.MetronomeMark.self-alignment-X = -0.3
\tempo "Tempo"
<as' bes'>
}
This offsets the metronome mark from its default position of 0 - centered on
the left-most notehead. Unfortunately the required value will depend on the
string length provided to \tempo and the number of accidentals, so this is
strictly a poor work-around.
Maybe someone else will have a better solution.
