I just got around to doing this, but when I look at LM 4.4.2 it already
says, immediately above the examples,
"To control the placement of the fingering of a single note using this
command it is necessary to write it as a single note chord by placing angle
brackets round it."
Seems clear enough to me but, as people seem to miss it, I'll do as you
suggest and put it in a warning box.

Subject: Re: Moving guitar fingering orientations
Aha! I've already sent a revised snippet to Valentin that shows how a
single note needs <> for setting the fingering orientations, but as I was
punching holes in my newly printed Learning Manual, I noticed an example
that already shows this in section 4.4.2 (or on pp. 104-105 of the .pdf
version). It has several instances of single notes with fingerings and in
each case the note and fingering is enclosed in a chord construct.
There's not an explicit @warning about enclosing single notes in <>, but
at least you can see it in the example. Could we add a @warning about
this above the example?

Ah. I see it now. Yes, this is easily fixed. How can I alter this
snippet? Valentin, this is your purview, right? Is it o.k. if I just
make
these small changes and email it to you?
Yes, please do!
Cheers,
Valentin
