Actually, setting Y-offset does have an influence of the layout, as soon
as you have
several dynamic indications next to each other, see for example the
following slightly
modified version of your example:
\version "2.9.17"
\layout { ragged-right = ##t }
{
\once \override Score.Hairpin #'Y-offset = #6
\relative c' {c1\> c1\! \f }
}
So, the Y-offset determines the vertical position within the group of
dynamic
indications that together are handled by a single DynamicLineSpanner
object.
Again, this is completely analogous to what happens with rehearsal marks,
where you can still use \left-align to determine the alignment between
different
objects within the same \markup{...}, for example in
\mark \markup{\column{ \right-align AAA \left-align BBB }}

The explanation may be something similar as the explanation in the

It seems you are both right.
Kieren, your suggestion works perfectly.
And I now notice at the bottom of the Dynamics page --
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.9/Documentation/user/lilypond/Dynamics.html
-- the following note under "See also":
"Program reference: DynamicText, Hairpin. Vertical positioning of
these symbols is handled by DynamicLineSpanner."
That should have clued me in. But I wonder why "Hairpin" even has a
"Y-offset" setting -- listed at
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.9/Documentation/user/lilypond-internals/Hairpin.html
-- if it doesn't do anything. As part of grob-interface, sure. But to
have it listed separately on the Hairpin page, seems unnecessary and
confusing to me. There are many other grobs which have no such setting
listed.
Anyway, thanks to both of you for your quick and helpful responses!
Marcus
