You make overrides for a TextScript but still use a mark here.

I see what your are saying, but ...
In my function I need a command?
\mark is the only one I have found that output a text, but obviously it's not the correct command!
So what is the command I should use??

Still double-spaced.

Ok, will try something else...
fN = #(define-music-function (parser location fretp ) (string?)
    #{
        \once \override TextScript #'self-alignment-X = #RIGHT
        \once \override TextScript #'direction = #DOWN
        \mark \markup { \box \italic \small $fretp }
    #}
)

Anyway, you ask why different things look different. It is because they are different things. There is not really more to it than that. The real question is why this poses a problem for you, and what it is you are actually trying to achieve.

Sorry I thought I had explained this. I want the first result. Where the number is located directly under the note or chord.
