Re: Fingering between notehead and beam?

[Papa Eric]

Yes, this I what I was looking for, thanks a lot! Too bad it does not 
seem to work with overriding Fingering #'direction. Can anybody explain why?

(All I can try: from the reference I guess single note fingerings are 
drawn by Fingering_engraver and chord ones by New_fingering_engraver, 
both held by Voice context. Does the Fingering_engraver ignore 
staff-padding?)

Using chords in your solution would annoy me because I was happy setting 
fingeringOrientations = #'(left) for chords and keeping up/down for 
lonely notes, and using single-note chords to sometimes place fingering 
left instead of \once \overriding the direction.

BTW, your example helped me understand the behaviour of the 
add-stem-support property: if true, fingerings will be at constant Y 
offset from the staff. (I thought it worked for StrungNumber and not 
Fingering only because my test notes were at different heights and I 
misinterpreted the results.)
