An alternative is to set some additional padding instead: \property Voice.TextScript \override #'padding = #3.0 If you just have a single collision in the whole score, David's solution is probably easier but if you have to adjust the spacing for a whole section of the score, I'd definitely prefer to set the padding instead. > > BTW, there is not now nor has there ever been anything wrong with > > fingering of any sort being on staff lines or before notes.

Thanks for reminding us about the specifics of Guitar music typeseting but don't forget that there are different typesetting habits for different instruments. In violin parts, for example, I don't think I've ever seen fingerings in the middle of a stave. /Mats _______________________________________________ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
