Positioning RNA chords above lyrics
I'm trying to write some lead sheets for some jazz music I'm working on. Some of the music has lyrics, and I like being able to see them, but they're definitely less important to me than the chords. For chords, I'm using roman numerals, so the Chord Symbol text just doesn't cut it (the first time I tried to enter something like 
I like the RNA text, but I can't position it how I like. What I want is the chord symbols to always be just below the staff, and lyrics, if there are any, are always lower down. Something like this: 
MuseScore seems to always want to position the RNA chord symbols below the lyrics, if there are any. If there aren't, the chord symbols are shown higher up. Like this: 
As a separate issue, that symbol for a half diminished chord looks just awful, although I'm pretty sure that's a font issue (the glyph is some default, and not consistent with the rest of the MuseJazz Text font.

Normally the RNA would be below everything else, because it is there only for analysis - that's what the "A" standards for, after all. So what you're doing is definitely unusual. To get it to work, you'd need to disable autoplace for either the lyrics or RNA. Normally I recommend disabling for the thing you want to be further from the staff. So disable it for the lyrics, but set the default vertical position to be low enough to stay out of the way.
However, it doesn't appear you are using true RNA at all - your pictures show some other font entirely. RNA only works properly with the font designed for it - Campania. That's what does the magic of stacking the inversion symbol;s like 64, converting b to flat, etc.
If you continue to need assistance, please attach your actual score instead of just pictures - then we can understand and assist better.
