Moving breathe sign

[Palmer, Ralph]

Greetings -

Just when I think I get the hang of it, bam. 

I'm running LilyPond 2.10.16 under Windows XP Pro SP2.

Thanks to Mats Bengtsson and Bertalan Fodor for their help with two
notehead sizes in one chord.

Now, in the same measure, actually, I'm trying to move a breathe sign,
and having no luck. Here's a snippet:

++++++++++ Begin Snippet +++++++++

\version "2.10.16"

\paper {
        ragged-right = ##t
        }

Breathe = {
        \key d \minor
        \clef alto
        \time 2/2


        c'4 c' c' c' |
        \once \override BreathingSign #'extra-offset = #'(0.0 . 5.0)
        b8[\breathe b]  < c' c >( d e fis gis e) |

        }
        
\score {
        \Breathe
        }

+++++++++++ End Snippet ++++++++

I've tried BreathingSign, Score.BreathingSign, Voice.BreathingSign, and
Staff.BreathingSign with #'extra-offset and #'padding in each possible
combination, and none of them makes any visible effect. I've also tried
using \override without \once, to no effect. I've also tried using
\tweak with#'extra-offset and with #'padding immediately before
\breathe, also with no effect.

Any suggestions for what to try next?

I'm grateful to everyone from the LilyPond community for all their help
and support and for the excellent product. I used to really like .abc,
and recently looked at some of my output, and realized that, although
.abc's simplicity is a big pro, LilyPond's output and flexibility are
wonderful. Thanks again.

Cheers,

Ralph
