Re: Markup Between Systems

[Kevin Barry]

Hi Marc,

I don't think there's a good way to do what you want, but there are a
couple of things that you could try:
- you could add a dynamics context above the staff, and add the markup
there at the appropriate time (anchored to a spacer rest)
- you could stop your staff, linebreak, add your markup, then another
linebreak, and then start your staff again
- (I know you said you don't want to do this but it's the simplest
option) attach the markup to some element in the staff underneath (you
can use \mark to get it left aligned with the system or over the bar
line)
- have two scores with a markup in between them

Someone else might think of something else, but those are some of the
evils on offer.
