To answer your original question more succinctly .... Your summation sure seems to match my testing. The cool thing that I learned is that chords that are engraved identically can have different chordname markup depending on how the notes are ordered in the .ly file, e.g. <c e g> vs. <c g e>. So as far as a way to work around this, it seems you'll have to drop out of chordmode when you have these chords at hand, something like: \version "2.15.38" someChords = { \chordmode { f1 f1 } % first part of chords % C7 #9 b9 <c' e' g' bes' des'' dis''>1 % C7 b9 #9 <c' e' g' bes' dis'' des''>1 \chordmode { f1 f1 } % last part of chords } % someChords \score { << \new ChordNames { \someChords } \new Staff { \key f \major \someChords } % Staff >> } % score _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
