Hi list!

I'm trying to place an articulation right in the middle of the Staff and I seem to lack the proper incantation. When I increase Y-offset to e.g. #3 the little "z" is printed above the Staff. I want it to appear at about the gis position on top of the stem. What do I have to adjust to make it work?

\version "2.25.2"

music = \relative d' {    \override TextScript.Y-offset=#2    \override TextScript.X-offset=#0.5    d2_\markup { \musicglyph "z" }\repeatTie r2 }

\score {    \music }

\version "2.25.2"

music = \relative d' {
   \override TextScript.Y-offset=#0
   \override TextScript.outside-staff-priority = ##f
   \override TextScript.X-offset=#0.5
   d2_\markup \vcenter \musicglyph "z" \repeatTie r2
}

\score {
   \music
}

If you don't turn off outside-staff-priority, it will try to prevent the collision, moving the text script out of the staff.
