Hi Simon,

I’ve been wanting to rewrite a piece using alternative dotted notes worth 5/4 the undotted notation. These cross-shaped “dots” however shouldn’t be offset vertically from their noteheads, unlike normal augmentation dots.

So I’d like to set the staff-position of the Dots grob to be just equal to that of its NoteHead, but my Lily extending skills are very rusty and I’m having trouble retrieving that NoteHead and its properties. The following ly:grob-object use doesn’t seem to work…

Try the Dots grob's Y-parent, i.e. (ly:grob-parent grob Y).

But I think what you want to do could/should be made more convenient using an engraver. I have a little time on the train right now and will try to cook something up, stay tuned...
