Re: Stacking order TextScript / FiguredBass

[Mats Bengtsson]

One answer is that you can't, since the text script will belong to the 
Staff
and the full Staff context will appear below the full FiguredBass context.

However, there are some possibilities to get what you want:

1. Move the text script using extra-offset, which means that LilyPond
 won't in any way adjust the placement of anything else to this movement.
 The pro is that you indeed can move it above the figure bass, the cons is
 it won't take the moved text script into account when calculating the 
distance
 to the score line above, for example.

2. Typeset the figure bass within the Staff context, i.e.
\version "2.11.37"
\score {
\new Staff = mystave <<
 { c'4^"blabla" d e f }
\figuremode { <6>4 <5> <6 4> <5 3> }
 >>
}

or

\version "2.11.37"
\score {
<<
\new Staff = mystave { c'4^"blabla" d e f }
\context Staff = mystave \figuremode { <6>4 <5> <6 4> <5 3> }
>>
}
