Hi, I've noticed that accidental glyphs don't mix well with text: their baseline is incorrect, and their size doesn't match the letters. Look at the chordnames resulting from input below: the accidentals are too big. If they were of correct height, they would become too thin and generally too small. Also, look at the figured bass: the accidentals are totally unreadable - definately too small! But if we simply change font-size, they would become too high. I think the solution is to create a shorter variaton of accidental glyphs; an example in the attachment. How do you like this idea? Do you think all accidentals should have shorter versions, or would it be overkill to create for example a shorter version of 3-stemmed sharp or arrowed flat?
cheers,
Janek
