When chord names are placed below a system, they can be much nearer to high notes in the system below (or even touch them) than to the bass notes of the system above (to which it is supposed to refer).
Obviously, system separation varies with the number of ledger lines intruding into the gap between systems. With a pair of systems separated by 14mm, the chord-name baseline is 10mm below the stave to which it refers and 4mm above the stave below. With a pair of systems in which a low C (second ledger line below the bass stave) happens to directly align with a high E (third ledger line above the treble stave), separation is 17.5mm, and chord-name is 13mm below stave (8mm below the low C and touching the high E). Please, can anyone tell me the magic incantations required to draw the chord-names closer to the bass notes and to put some extra space from the system below? Maybe I am creating a situation in not having the chord-names above the top stave, but harmonic structure is easier to read with the chord-names near the bass note. This situation currently prevailing in 2.13.13 and previous Thank you _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
