Re: markup dynamics wrong size

[Mats Bengtsson]

In addition to my previous answer: The size of the markup text is larger 
since the template contains
the line:
     \override TextScript #'font-size = #2
If you just remove that line, you should get the same size as the normal 
dynamics.

The question is why the setting was done in the first place. Perhaps 
it's just a remainder
from some ancient version where this setting made sense, and nobody has 
used the
template with text or \markup command lately.
