I'm trying to add a bit of padding to the whiteout function when used on a
\cresc. My results are best explained with code...

\version "2.16.2"

exampleone = \markup {how it looks with whiteout}
exampletwo = \markup {how I want it to look}
examplethree = \markup {trying to use scheme}


\score {
   \new GrandStaff <<
     \new Staff \relative c' {

        c ^\exampleone d e \once \override DynamicTextSpanner #'whiteout =
##t f \cresc c  d e f \!}
     \new Staff \relative c' {
       c d e f \cresc c  d e f \!}

I see from the docs that you can get rid of the dashed extender line in the top staff, using

\once \override DynamicTextSpanner.style = #'none


That still leaves the challenge of whiteout around the cresc. text, though.

Cheers,
Colin
