In the following
code, I need the fingering instructions to be on the left of every note, so I
use " \set fingeringOrientations = #'(left)". This works fine with the
first couple of notes, but afterwards, the finger numbers begin reappearing

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?

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?

Hello,
I have a strange problem with Lilypond-2.8.0 (I just generated it from

All seems to be OK. Fonts are generated without any problem. However, I

Did you read the section on Common Tweaks? It describes the padding
property which often is the best way to move things
vertically.

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
There shouldn't be any reason to move the engraver, just use
\set Staff.fingeringOrientations ... or
\set Score.fingeringOrientations ... to make the setting apply to all
voices in the Stave or score, respectively.

Quick question:
I just upgraded to 2.6.3, and what used to be "E7#5" in a lead sheet now
shows up as "E7/5." Also, what used to be Fmaj7#11 is now Fmaj/add11.
Is there a guide out there somewhere that lists the various chord
alterations, extensions, etc. so that I can fix the discrepancies?

You have accidentally dotted the quarter note C in the measure before the turn. That's what's throwing your time off.
