Wow, what great software. I've been looking for something
like this, and am very glad to have found it.
I use lilypond to write lead sheets. I have a chart with a
coda jump that occurs right after a second ending. The coda
symbol gets placed quite high above the staff, high enough to
clear the second ending.
Is there a way I can tweak the placement of the Coda symbol
to bring it a little (or a lot) lower, and hopefully cause
the software to spread the horizontal spacing a little to
prevent crowding? Even if it creates crowding, I'd like to
learn how to tweak the 'altitude' of the Coda sign.
Thanks!
Jim
