It's pretty obscure but I found it eventually...
Version 2.8.0 on Windows XP
If there is a rest at the start of a staff then vertical spacing of lyrics
does not work.
For example, in this piece the lyrics are spaced away from the staff:
\version "2.8.0"
\score { \context Voice = mv { a'4 b' c'' d'' }
\addlyrics {
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-2 . 8)
one two three four
}
}
But in this version (with added rest) the vertical spacing is ignored:
\version "2.8.0"
\score { \context Voice = mv { r4 a'4 b' c'' d'' }
\addlyrics {
\override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-2 . 8)
one two three four
}
}
One workaround is to add a hidden note before the rest, and a skip in the
lyrics.
