Hi. I'm a new lilypond user, so please excuse me if this question is too basic or elemental. I'm writing a chord chart using \chordmode but am having trouble with some repeats because the chord names appear above the numbered ending brackets. How can I make lilypond write the repeat brackets above of the chord names?
You can find an example in the Tips and Tricks document included in the documentation for your version of LilyPond at www.lilypond.org.
Also, how can I place the chord name closer to the top of the staff? Sometimes I find that the chord names are a little far up. Thanks.
See section "10.1.6 Vertical spacing" in the manual. Note that both the vertical extent of Staff and of ChordNames is involved here. However, by default there's no reserved space below the chords, so you don't have to fiddle with that setting. /Mats _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
