The default alignment of bar numbers depends on its position: at the beginning of a staff, bar numbers are right-aligned; at all other positions, they are left-aligned. Using Scheme function <code>break-alignment-list</code>, this can be changed; the three arguments of this function are the alignment for end-of-line, middle-of-line, and start-of-line position (in this order). <lilypond version="2.24"> \relative c' { \set Score.currentBarNumber = 111 \override Score.BarNumber.break-visibility = #all-visible % Increase the size of the bar number by 2 \override Score.BarNumber.font-size = 2 % Print a bar number every second measure \set Score.barNumberVisibility = #(every-nth-bar-number-visible 2) c1 | c1 | c1 | \break c1 | c1 | c1 | \break \override Score.BarNumber.self-alignment-X = #(break-alignment-list CENTER RIGHT CENTER) c1 | c1 | c1 | \break c1 | c1 | c1 | } \paper { line-width = 70\mm } </lilypond> [[Category:Rhythms]] [[Category:Included in the official documentation]] [[Category:Snippet]]
