Re: Chord symbol placement from \layout
I have recompiled 2.13.8 and the problem is gone Thanks! El 14/11/2009, a las 11:54 p.m., Jesús Guillermo Andrade escribió: Carl: I have recently compiled 2.13.8.

Re: Chord symbol placement from \layout
I'm assuming that you're using 2.13? This problem has apparently been addressed and fixed for the next release. http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=890 On 14.11.2009, at 21:49, Jesús Guillermo Andrade wrote: Dear fellows: I need to learn some fundamental inner working of the chord symbols.

Perhaps its some sort of collission control in effect here? I would need to set a fixed height for all chord symbols, then I would need to prevent collisions, but i guess that last part is taken care of automatically... or not?

However, I cannot get the chord symbols to be placed above the staff if I specify a key signature. I'm sure this is possible? It's definitely possible, you can try asking about for help on the lilypond-user list if you can't find answers in the manual. -- Erik ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
