thanks indeed Stephen, its a nice idea to lump the chord symbols into "one"
rather
than do a \markup to all notes. The Vb is just the first inversion of the
chord, the b is not
a flat symbol.
I guess one thing that puzzled me with the \override  TextScript.padding is
why the outcome didn't just add an further offset but with the same result
of the symbols going up and down following the music.
Perhaps \override means not only override the default offset, but turn off
completely the following
of the music ?
