Thanks for the code you sent me in private Jacques, it's full of useful examples but I still can't make this particular chord work.
I want to display a minor chord with a fourth like this: "Am (add4)". That's all I want to do. First I'm surprised that I have to specify the chord (in the variable chExceptionMusic) in a note to note format (in this case <a c e d>). Is it not possible to specify it in a chord name format ? And second how should I write my chord (A minor with a fourth) in the chordMode format ? a:m.4 doesn't work and a:m4 does'nt display the chord correctly.
