Re: ArticulationVerticalPos

[Mats Bengtsson]

If you look up "Trill" in the index of the (on-line) reference manual
you will get a link to the section on Articulations and at the end of
that section, you find another link "See also Script". There, you will
find a list of all the properties that can be adjusted on the Script
objects, divided into different categories ("interfaces").
One of these properties, "padding", is exactly what you are looking for.

To change the padding locally (within one stave or just for a few bars),
do something like:
\property Staff.Script \override #'padding = #1.0
To change it for the full score, do
\score{
  ...
  \paper{
    ...
    \translator{
      \ScoreContext
      Script \override #'padding = #1.0
    }
  }
}


The general principles for setting properties are described in the
section "Fine tuning a piece" in the tutorial.
