4.14.2 Rehearsal marks

To print a rehearsal mark, use the \mark command:

     \relative c'' {
       c1 \mark "A"
       c1 \mark "B"
       c1 \mark "12"
       c1 \mark "13"
       c1
     }

The mark is incremented automatically if you use \mark \default. The value to use is stored in the property rehearsalMark is used and automatically incremented.

The \mark command can also be used to put signs like coda, segno and fermatas on a barline. Use \markup to to access the appropriate symbol:

       c1 \mark \markup { \musicglyph #"scripts-ufermata" }
       c1

In this case, during line breaks, marks must also be printed at the end of the line, and not at the beginning. Use the following to force that behavior:

     \property Score.RehearsalMark \override
       #'break-visibility = #begin-of-line-invisible

See input/test/boxed-molecule.ly for putting boxes around the marks.
