Dear Aleksa,
As Footnote object supports grob-interface, the following seems to work well to
fine-tune the placement of footnote mark.
\version "2.24.2"
\score {
<<
\new Staff { \override Footnote.annotation-line = ##f %%this doesn't seem to
affect the issue but reduces visual clutter so makes it clearer in the image
below
\relative c'' { d4. b8 g4 r8
\once \override Footnote.extra-offset = #'(0 . 0.75) % Try this!
\footnote "*)" #'(-1 . 0) \markup{"Footnote"} g' |
}
}
>>
}
I hope this is helpful!
Yoshi
