Hi Steven,


The metronome marks are being created by the Metronome_mark_engraver. This
engraver, by default, "lives" in the Score context, i.e. the metronome marks
will be displayed just once above the score, not within the stave lines.

The easiest solution to your problem probably is to just include this
engraver in the upper piano stave so that metronome marks will be displayed
there, too:

\version "2.18.2"

     \new Staff { \tempo 4 = 80 R1 }
     \new Staff { \tempo 4 = 80 R1 }
   >>
   \new PianoStaff <<
     \new Staff \with { \consists "Metronome_mark_engraver" } { \tempo 4 =
80 R1 }
     \new Staff { \tempo 4 = 80 R1 }

By the way, rehearsal marks (created by the Rehearsal_mark_engraver) are a
similar case.

HTH,
Torsten
