Thanks, Trevor.
Will \override (as opposed to \once \override) give all subsequent
TextSpanner entries the same staff-padding? or the same edge-text
setting, for that matter?

Hi Ralph

This should do what you want:

Insert
  \override TextSpanner #'staff-padding = #9

Change the '9' to give the height you want

Subject: Vertical adjustment of \markup


Greetings,

I'm running Lilypond 2.8.4.1 on WinXP SP2.

In the following snippet, I'd like to move "rit" upward. In the score the snippet comes from, the "rit" almost collides with a c'''
notehead.
I've tried \pad-markup, but Lilypond choked - tried to compile
forever.
I suspect I'm formating the section incorrectly, but I can't figure out the correct format.

snippet:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

\version "2.8.4.1"
\include "english.ly"

Music = {
        \clef treble
        \key c \major
        \time 3/4

\override TextSpanner #'edge-text = #(cons (markup #:italic "rit" ) "")
         d''16\startTextSpan c''' e'' a'' c''' e'' |
         b''16 ds'' fs'' b'' f'' b''\stopTextSpan }

\score {
       \Music
       }

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Thanks again for your help,

Ralph
