Text at very beginning of 2nd line?

Is it possible to place a text expression directly over the clef on the second or subsequent lines? I have a bar with a "force system break." The next item is the text expression? No matter what placement property I set, it seems the farthest left it can be placed is just before the first note (after the generated clef and key signature). I would like to place it at the left margin. Is that possible?

Try Right Justification in the Expression Placement tab.  If necessary, pad the text with spaces on the right.  You will need to keep switching between Print Preview and editing mode, and may still have to adjust after printing.
