Hi,
The figured bass bug I sent earlier on with version 2.9.17 remains the same
in 2.9.18.
Since I was the sponsor of this feature it would be good if it worked how I
had originally commissioned it.
Figures were able to placed above rests but in recent versions these are now
ignored. The figured is excepted (ie. lilypond doesn't complain) but there
is no figure printed in the output.
I've done some detective work and downloaded again each of the previous
lilypond versions before 2.9.18. The last lilypond version that the figured
bass work properly was 2.9.13. In version 2.9.14 the figured bass was not
working at all. I sent a message to Lilypond User about this version which
Mats then forwarded this onto Lilypond Bugs
(http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2006-08/msg00044.html).
Version 2.9.15 the figured bass was working again except that figures above
a rest were ignored.
I hope this helps in tracking down the bug. I have several instrumental
scores that I would like to now finish and print but can't until this issue
is solved.
Thanks
Trent
