Re: can line-break-system-details be given a relative offset (for Y-offset)?

+1!!

As I had to use this override the other day, I crossed my fingers and hoped that "extra-offset" was a supported property and sadly learned that it isn't. Seems like just the thing to be able to give a system a little nudge in either direction when you need to. After all, that's what pretty much every other grob can utilize, so why not systems, too?

My 2 cents,

Hi all,

I sometimes use Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn.line-break-system-details to explicitly set the Y-offset of a system.

But Lily does such a good job by default, that I usually need only “nudge” the system by 1 or 2 staff spaces up or down.
So rather than using trial-and-error to find the correct ABSOLUTE Y-offset of a given system, I’d like to be able to give a RELATIVE Y-offset adjustment (e.g., -1).
Is this possible?

Thanks,
Kieren.
