I posted this question 2 days ago but I got no response
These things happen :)
No problem, I just wanted to be sure somebody reads it...
Isn't a pitched rest supposed to
shift to the right or - vice versa - a chord relative to the rest?
Why would it be shifted to the *right*? the rest and the chord are
simultaneous events, so LilyPond tries to put them vertically aligned.
Because I use \override NoteColumn #'force-hshift = #2. in one voice! This
works with a "normal" note, but not with a "\rest"-ed note.
(Plus, when you do'nt use a pitched rest, as you noticed, there is no
collision).
I have reduced the score to the essential (lilypond-wise), originally it
is a 4 voice arrangement of a piece of John Dowland for lute or guitar
where another note appears in the bass (e,) and then the collision occurs!
If you really want to shift your rest to the right, use
\once \override Voice.Rest #'X-offset = #2
This helps, thanks!
