Re: Stand alone guitar chord diagrams

 In my course documentation I will need a flexible means to generate
 chord diagrams. I would be greatly surprised that Lilypond could be used
 for this but perhaps someone has experience with this and would make a
 suggestion as to what I might use. I'm running Linux and would prefer
 something open source.


Something like this (very simple)?

\version 2.16.2

\markup {
  \fill-line { \bold Major chords in first position }
}
\markup {
  \fret-diagram #6-x;5-3;4-2;3-o;2-1;1-o;
  \fret-diagram #6-x;5-o;4-o;3-2;2-3;1-2;
  \fret-diagram #6-o;5-2;4-2;3-1;2-o;1-o;
}

Or do you mean something like this, with notes as well?

\version 2.17.24

global = {
  \time 4/4
  \key c \major
  }

chordNames = \chordmode {
  \global
  c1 g1 e1 d1
  
}

melody = \relative c'' {
  \global
  c4 d e f
  g g f g
  e g a g 
  d d d d
}


\score {
  
\new ChordNames \chordNames
\new FretBoards \chordNames
\new Staff { \melody }

  
 
}

don't forget this after the \version statement:

\include predefined-guitar-fretboards.ly

Re: Stand alone guitar chord diagrams

Hi Kevin

please reply to the list, you'll get much better help than from me (and the
replies will be available in the archives).
Have a look at the snippet called Customizing fretboard fret diagrams
down from here:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/common-notation-for-fretted-strings#predefined-fret-diagrams

Before asking here, I suggest searching the LilyPond index of Notation
Reference (bottom of left menu). It took me few seconds to get from there
to that snippet...
Then of course you can ask if you have problems.

 Hi Federico,

 is it possible to add color and numbers to the individual black dots? In
 what documentation or searching for what text can I find further
 information?

 Thanks,

 Kevin Tough

well, if you'd give us some more details or examples, we could try an
attempt!?
