LilyPond Internals Reference: 3.1.90 MultiMeasureRestScript

### 3.1.90 `MultiMeasureRestScript`

An articulation (like a fermata) attached to a `MultiMeasureRest` grob. See also `Script`.

`MultiMeasureRestScript` objects are created by: `Multi_measure_rest_engraver`.

Standard settings:

`direction` (direction):

  `1`

  If `side-axis` is `0` (or `X`), then this property determines whether the object is placed `LEFT`, `CENTER` or `RIGHT` with respect to the other object. Otherwise, it determines whether the object is placed `UP`, `CENTER` or `DOWN`. Numerical values may also be used: `UP`=`1`, `DOWN`=`-1`, `LEFT`=`-1`, `RIGHT`=`1`, `CENTER`=`0`.

`outside-staff-padding` (number):

  `0`

  The padding to place between grobs when spacing according to `outside-staff-priority`. Two grobs with different `outside-staff-padding` values have the larger value of padding between them.

`outside-staff-priority` (number):

  `40`

  If set, the grob is positioned outside the staff in such a way as to avoid all collisions. In case of a potential collision, the grob with the smaller `outside-staff-priority` is closer to the staff.

`parent-alignment-X` (number):

  `0`

  Specify on which point of the parent the object is aligned. The value `-1` means aligned on parent’s left edge, `0` on center, and `1` right edge, in X direction. Other numerical values may also be specified - the unit is half the parent’s width. If unset, the value from `self-alignment-X` property will be used.

`self-alignment-X` (number):

  `0`

  Specify alignment of an object. The value `-1` means left aligned, `0` centered, and `1` right-aligned in X direction. Other numerical values may also be specified - the unit is half the object width.

`side-axis` (number):

  `1`

  If the value is `X` (or equivalently `0`), the object is placed horizontally next to the other object. If the value is `Y` or `1`, it is placed vertically.

`staff-padding` (dimension, in staff space):

  `0.25`

  Maintain this much space between reference points and the staff. Its effect is to align objects of differing sizes (like the dynamics p and f) on their baselines.

`stencil` (stencil):

  `ly:script-interface::print`

  The symbol to print.

`vertical-skylines` (pair of skylines):

  `#<unpure-pure-container #<procedure ly:grob::vertical-skylines-from-stencil (_)> #<procedure ly:grob::pure-simple-vertical-skylines-from-extents (_ _ _)> >`

  Two skylines, one above and one below this grob.

`X-offset` (number):

  `ly:self-alignment-interface::aligned-on-x-parent`

  The horizontal amount that this object is moved relative to its X-parent.

`Y-extent` (pair of numbers):

  `#<unpure-pure-container #<procedure ly:grob::stencil-height (_)> >`

  Extent (size) in the Y direction, measured in staff-space units, relative to object’s reference point.

`Y-offset` (number):

  `#<unpure-pure-container #<procedure ly:side-position-interface::y-aligned-side (_ #:optional _)> #<procedure ly:side-position-interface::pure-y-aligned-side (_ _ _ #:optional _)> >`

  The vertical amount that this object is moved relative to its Y-parent.

This object supports the following interface(s): `font-interface`, `grob-interface`, `multi-measure-interface`, `outside-staff-interface`, `script-interface`, `self-alignment-interface`, `side-position-interface` and `spanner-interface`.

This object is of class Spanner (characterized by `spanner-interface`).
