It is possible to place arbitrary strings of text or markup text (see
Text markup) above or below notes by using a string
c^"text"
. By default, these indications do not influence the
note spacing, but by using the command \fatText
, the widths
will be taken into account
c4^"longtext" \fatText c4_"longlongtext" c4
More complex formatting may also be added to a note by using the markup command,
c'4^\markup { bla \bold bla }
The \markup
is described in more detail in
Text markup.
