The chords are handled just like a stave, when it comes to vertical
spacing. Think of it as an invisible rectangle around each stave
and around each line of chords. These rectangles are placed edge
to edge. The parameters described in this section describe how
LilyPond determines the size of each

Padding is exactly what I _don't_ want - I need Lilypond to ignore that text
markup when deciding where to

LilyPond will ignore the extra-offset, but it will still move the
chords according to the normal position of the text. If you don't want
that, you can specify a fixed vertical extent
of the Staff, see the section on Vertical Spacing and follow the link
at the bottom of the page to the VerticalAl
Did you read the section on Common Tweaks? It describes the padding
property which often is the best way to move things
vertically.

Quoting dave k <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Currently I am doing something like this:
\once \override TextScript #'Y-offset = #-5
\once \overrid
Currently I am doing something like this:
\once \override TextScript #'Y-offset = #-5
\once \override TextScript #'extra-offset = #'(0.0 . 5.0)
But it seems not to be the best way. How can I achieve the same effect?

I am using text markup, and Lilypond kindly moves the chord symbols higher to
accomodate them. But sometimes I want to use extra-offset to move the markup,
and I want Lilypond to completely ignore the markup, i.e., not move the chord
symbols higher. How to I get it to do this?
