Hi Kieren,
thank you very much for the nice workaround!

Lilypond seems to calculate the "real" line height of the writing, not some
kind of nominal text line height, so that a line with descenders is higher than a line
without.
Yes, this is a constant thorn in my engraving side.
I *so* wish we could control line-leading instead of baseline-skip…
Thank you! Should this be in the manual? (Or is it, and I missed it?)
is there some tweak to line height calculation, or a way to add "phantom"
maximum underlength letters?
In my main include file, I have the following definition:
strut = \markup \transparent { Tj }
Then, in markups, I use
\combine $text \strut
to guarantee a consistent height/spacing.
Great, thank you again!
Should some remark about this be added to
<https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.22/Documentation/notation/stanzas>? It
might come as a surprise if a recommended solution does not work
‘beautifully’.
I suppose Ij might save even more space – but there is nothing like
TeX's \llap or \rlap (i.e. boxes without width)?
Best regards
Bernhard
