Comment #5 on issue 3255 by address@hidden: \with-dimensions doesn't work  
with zero extension
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3255

In the documentation, \with-dimensions is documented as:

"Set the dimensions of arg to x and y."

It sets the dimensions of the argument, which is a markup, not the entire  
grob (which is in this case a TextSpanner).  For example:

{ c_\markup { foo \with-dimensions #'(0 . 0) #'(0 . 0) bar foo } }

Does not effect the entire grob stencil but just the middle word.

I'm not sure if by "object" you mean grob - to set the dimensions of an  
grob, X-extent and Y-extent are your best bet.

The way to get this behavior back is to revert the current default for  
TextScript vertical-skylines.  For the time being, there is no way to  
communicate between markups (which are stencils evaluated at compile time)  
and vertical skylines to do the kind of skyline overrides David's talking  
about.  I'm OK with this reversion if people think that's the right way to  
go.
