Re: Text in front of Staves

[Kale Good]

Well that's the simple solution to defining right hand fingers that I was looking for. Thanks.

Your example, like Thomas's, throws an error for me with the \override VerticalAxisGroup using 2.16.2 Also throws an error for tuplet command, but both work once I take these out. Also, there's the issue of page breaks; right now the 20 exercise I have done are all crammed on one page.

Here is my code for the 2 we're looking at. Please pardon me if my minimum example isn't as minimum as possible; this is by far the biggest lily project I've undertaken.

Hi Harm, Hi Kale,

      \relative c' {

Two small remarks :

1) because of its tessitura, \relative is not needed for the guitar

2) better use \clef "G_8"

Here's Harm's code with "modern" fingerings and an alternative for the "no left hand finger" in the exercise no.4

\version "2.17.23"

rhp = -\rightHandFinger #1 

rhi = -\rightHandFinger #2 

rhm = -\rightHandFinger #3 

rha = -\rightHandFinger #4 

rhx = -\rightHandFinger #5

%%%% Aletrnate "No Left hand" fingering %%%%%

lnf =

#(let ((finger (make-music 'FingeringEvent)))

   (set! (ly:music-property finger 'tweaks)

   (acons 'text #{\markup\stencil #(make-circle-stencil 0.45 0.2 #f)#}
