Re: \set TabStaff.minimumFret may cause an unwanted TAB-symbol

[Phil Burfitt]

Hi Patrick,

I'm not familiar with the inner workings of lilypond, but it
seems to me the problem occurs when a TabStaff command
(\set TabStaff.minimumFret) is executed in a Staff context.

using \set minimumFret = #5 instead should solve the problem.

Regards,
Phil.
