Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows how to override the default numbering format for string numbers (default is circled arabic numbers) and use roman numerals instead. An example would be something like this: { e''\2 } which is an e played on the second string. The default shows a circled 2 above the staff. I would like to show a roman numeral II instead, so there is no confusion between string and fingering indications. Since roman numerals for strings are a common convention, i am guessing there is a setting in lilypond for it that I havent found. What i have learned so far is that the StringNumber is written by the New fingering engraver and has both a stencil and text property, but i have not been able to figure out how to change them to roman numerals. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks, Philip _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
