This is Issue 1863: Explicit fingering direction (^3) has no effect if Fingering#'direction is set <URL:http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1863> Actually low-hanging fruit. Fix is easy and works, I am just doing a regtest, and then this can enter the channels. Of course, it is a backwards-incompatible formatting change which might cause some chagrin in connection with combining multiple voices that are also used in isolation. But maybe you are better off removing the fingering altogether then. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
