Hi,
when looking at this snippet: http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Snippet?id=292
I have the following question:
Why is \context Staff allowed here? How can I fill bass figures in a Staff?
I thought I need a \new FiguredBass context for the \continuo. This
works indeed (%2) but I loose the ability to change the alignment direction.
Is that a general thing (for Lyrics, ChordNames)?
What is the recommended layout? \new FiguredBass or \context Staff?
Thanks
Joram
Here is the snippet for comparison:
\version "2.18.0"
bass = { \clef bass g4 b, c d e d8 c d2 }
continuo = \figuremode {
\set Score.useBassFigureExtenders = ##t
<_>4 <6>4 <5/>4
\override Staff.BassFigureAlignmentPositioning #'direction = #UP
< _+ >4 <6>
\override Staff.BassFigureAlignmentPositioning #'direction = #DOWN
<4>4. <4>8 <_+>4
}
% 1
<<
\new Staff = bassStaff \bass
\context Staff = bassStaff \continuo
>>
% 2
<<
\new Staff = bassStaff \bass
\new FiguredBass \continuo
>>
