`cite` with vertical offset

[zafarella]

Seams like dead repo, but anyway, for fork or when maintenance starts: Was in need of

\cite[voffset]{blahBlah}

The option for sidenote exists, and seams nobody had issue like this before? But essentailly the citing text overlaps with main full width text (\begib{fullwidth}\end{fullwidth})

I had the same problem. As a workaround I used the \sidecite macro described in this tex.stackexchange post. This can be used as follows:

%move the citation up
\sidecite<-0.72cm>{astley1987never}

% keep the citation where tex wants it
\sidecite<>{astley1987never}
