Tuplet number direction

I wonder if someone could illuminate the tuplet direction property - I wanted to put the tuplet number above rather than below and looked up: http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/internals/tupletnumber direction (direction): tuplet-number::calc-direction If side-axis is 0 (or X),

Richard, et al, Many grob properties are given a function (like tuplet-number::calc-direction) rather than a static value (like UP) when the property depends on many factors. In other words, by default, it's as if the 'direction property was set with \override TupletNumber.direction = #tuplet-num

accordion, single note for chords, midi

On the accordion the recommended notation to indicate a chord is writing in the bass staff a *single* note between d' and d and writing on top of them 'M' for major, 'm' for minor etc. Doing this with lilypond is easy but the generated midi file will contain single notes and not chords. How can I
