Hi Federico,
1) use TextScript #'padding
2) use \translate
3) There are other arrows in the UTF-8 characters.
For ex. :
up = _\markup \translate #'(-.2 . 0) \rotate #90 "➛"
down = _\markup \translate #'(-.2 . 0) \rotate #-90 "➛"
music = \relative c {
d8\down g\down b\up d,\down g\down b\up g\down b\up |
b8\down b\up g\down g\up g\down a\up b4\down |
}
\score {
\new StaffGroup <<
\new Staff <<
\context Voice { \clef "G_8" \music }
>>
\new TabStaff <<
\context TabVoice { \clef "moderntab" \music }
>>
>>
\layout {
\context {
\Score
\override TextScript #'padding = #3
}
}
}
