If you check out in the program reference which context handles the metronome marks, i.e. wich context contains the Metronome_mark_engraver, you will notice that it's the Score context. Your \override command only sets the property in the Voice context, which is far too deep down in the context hierarchy. Try \override Staff.MetronomeMark ...

I tried that, as shown below, but it still will not move the metronome mark up 2 spaces.
----
\score {
\notes
\relative c''
{
\set Score.skipBars = ##t
\override Staff.MultiMeasureRest #'expand-limit = #1
\time 2/2
\tempo 2=102 \override Staff.MetronomeMark #'padding = #2.0
\clef treble
\key d \major
R1*16
r4 fsharp( g gsharp

The original info I found in the archives, and did a copy paste from a message found there. Maybe it was for an earlier version.

But it does not move. I tried putting the \tempo 2=102 after the \override statement but that doesn't work either. I'm using 2.2.2.
thanks,
