Oops, successive redundant *chords* with a changing bass note, I meant to say. LT
Harm, Thanks so much for sharing and tightening up this code for hiding redundant bass notes in successive slash chords, and thanks Elaine Alt for initiating the thread. It's a really useful feature to have in a leadsheet, and one I had been hoping was possible in Lilypond without too much trouble. Much appreciated! LT Am So., 2.

You can observe the default settings their as well (alphabetical listed, see context Score) In /ly/engraver-init.ly they are thematical ordered. But none of them will help here, afaict. Instead please try the attached file - recreating the chords text, if conditions are matched. Cheers, Harm
