Hello all,
Is there a way to make LilyPond ignore collisions or spacing issues between
a markup text and other staves or grobs? For instance, consider this example
below:
\version "2.19.37"
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff {
des''4
f''
e'_\markup{
\hspace #-1.5
\center-column {
\combine
\arrow-head #Y #UP ##t
\draw-line #'(0 . -10)
\circle "103"
}
}
aes'
}
\new Staff {
\clef bass
c1
}
>>

As you see, LilyPond stretches the staves quite a lot in order avoid a
collision between the bottom staff and the text (marked in red). So if I
want that arrow to actually cross over the bottom staff, the only way I
managed so far is using this approach:
\version "2.19.37"
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff {
des''4
f''
e'
aes'
}
\new Staff {
\clef bass
c1*1/2
\once \override TextScript.extra-offset = #'(0 . 8)
s2_\markup{
\hspace #-1.5
\center-column {
\combine
\arrow-head #Y #UP ##t
\draw-line #'(0 . -10)
\circle "103"
}
}
}
>>
Producing:
<http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/file/n198127/2.png>
The problem with this approach is two-fold: first, it's a bit ugly as it
involves multiplying the durations and using invisible rests to get the
markup in the right position. And secondly: this may very well affect the
distance between systems or between the last system and the margin, in the
case of a bottom system.
So is there a way better way of solving this?
Cheers!
Gilberto
