Hello list,
I try to put fret diagrams at the beginning of a piece.
My input file looks like this:
\version "2.13.50"
\score {
<<
\new ChordNames \chordmode {
g:m
}
\new Lyrics \lyricmode {
\markup { \fret-diagram #"w:4;4-o;3-o;2-1;1-3;" }
Wow! You're absolutely right! Thanks so much! Wonder why that error
doesn't bork the diagram completely?

Whereas in standard guitar tuning, the A major chord diagram would look like
this:

\fret-diagram #"6-o;5-o;4-2;3-2;2-2;1-o:"
And the standard A7 diagram would look

Leaving the open strings out works for most fret diagrams, but when I
generate an F chord for ukulele, #"2-2;o;1-1;o;" becomes #"2-2;1-1;" and
the wrong fret diagram results.
Is there a way to put a "null" spacer for the open strings?

If you look at it like this, you can see that you've duplicated the
fret diagram.
The easiest solution is so put your fret diagrams in a different
variable, and include that variable only where you want it. i.e.,
Diagrams = {

Problem solved. With 2.13.3 I don't get any error messages. Thanks again for

It's much easier to provide a relevant answer to your question if you
include a small example .ly file that illustrates your problem.
Also, don't forget to tell what LilyPond version you use.
How do you typeset the fret diagrams? Do you attach them to note like

Hi Ed,
considering how complex a process creating musical notation is,
I find it amazing that LP does what it does.
No question: I would never go back to Finale (or any other notation
application, for that matter).

IIRC, the fret diagrams are markups, so they are treated as simply text.

Hi Rob,
I think it's just that I don't understand what the X-extent really

It controls how wide Lilypond thinks a given object is.
It looks like each diagram needs to have an adjustment

Ugh.

provide padding).

I'm proposing a method for getting transposable fret diagrams for the

The method I propose is different from the current FretBoard

determines a fingering that will allow the playing of that set of notes.
