There is a discussion on -bug about the display of chords for jazz musicians, essentially asking for simplification in the interests of readability. Following on Bart's suggestion, is it feasible to create alternate display modes tied to a table, such that one could e.g. \setDiaqgramInstrument ="guitar" \setChordDisplay = "jazz" I'm away for the day, but I'd bew quite happy raising an enhancement issue around this. -- He is winding the watch of his wit; by and by it will strike. - William Shakespeare, The Tempest Act 2 scene 1 _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
