To understand how each of these different settings work, we begin
by looking at an example that includes no overrides at all.

This score isolates line- and page-breaking information in a dedicated
the @code{Y-offset} pair in the @code{line-break-system-details}
attribute of the @code{NonMusicalPaperColumn} grob:

Note that @code{line-break-system-details} takes an associative list of
within each system manually. We do this using the @code{alignment-offsets}
subproperty of @code{line-break-system-details}.

Note that here we assign two different values to the
every system and every staff. Finally, note that @code{alignment-offsets}
specifies the vertical positioning of staves but not of staff groups.
