Lilypond always puts the continuo figures too far from the staff for my
taste. When I use an "\override BassFigure #'extra-offset" command, the
figures get closer but of course they start bumping into things. What I
want is to be able to tell Lilypond to put the figures a minimum
distance from the lower limit of the staff, or if the bass note is below
the staff, a minimum distance from the bass note.


Maybe something like

\layout {
  \context {
    \FiguredBass                        
    \override VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-2 . -2)
  }
}

(took me a week to get around to reading your msg -- sorry)
