self-alignment-X has negligible effects on dynamics

In the following example, the ordinary overrides of self-alignment-X appear to have no effect on the position pf the dynamics (or an effect I can't see). Large numbers are needed for an obvious shift. Is this a bug, or something I'm doing wrong? \version "2.19.10" { \override DynamicText.self

Hi, In the following example, the half-note F# counts as an immediate repetition and should not get an accidental in neo-modern and neo-modern-cautionary styles, This issue is seen in the documentation at http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/displaying-pitches#automatic-accidental

Accidentals on repeated notes separated by rests in certain styles

Certain accidental styles suppress accidentals on immediately repeated notes. (These styles are neo-modern, neo-modern-cautionary, neo-modern-voice, neo-modern-voice-cautionary, and dodecaphonic-no-repeat.) When a pitch repetition occurs across a rest, however, the accidental is repeated: as an o
