#### MetronomeMark

MetronomeMark objects are created by: Metronome_mark_engraver

Standard settings:

`stencil` (unknown):
  `ly:text-interface::print`

  The symbol to print.

`Y-offset` (number):
  `ly:side-position-interface::y-aligned-side`

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

`direction` (direction):
  `1`

  If side-position is 1 (#X), then this property determines if the object is placed #LEFT, #CENTER or #RIGHT with respect to the other object. Otherwise, it determines if the object is placed #UP #CENTER or #DOWN. Numerical values may also be used. #UP=1, #DOWN=-1, #LEFT=-1, #RIGHT=1, CENTER=0 but also other numerical values are permitted.

`padding` (dimension, in staff space):
  `0.8`

  Add this much extra space between objects that are next to each other.

`side-axis` (number):
  `1`

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

This object supports the following interfaces: text-interface, side-position-interface, metronome-mark-interface, item-interface, font-interface and grob-interface
