Re: vertical spacer in figured bass

[Urs Liska]

Hi Andrew,

quite risky to bury a mention inside such a thread. But I immediately figured out (sorry for the pun) how that question relates to Kayser, so I at least opened the messages ;-)

Please send me (privately) a MWE so I can really see what's necessary and where to put it in the repository structure.

BTW: what I'm wondering about (only reading this on the list) is: why are you talking about "\context Staff" and not "\context FiguredBass"?

Hi Richard and Mark,

Mark, thank you for the tip but I understand how continuation lines work. That part's not an issue. My issue is getting an empty line in the second set of bass figures. 

Richard, if I can dissect the Denomo code a bit (there's a lot of it!), it looks like I need both the 

\context Staff \with {implicitBassFigures = #'(0) }

_expression_ in the \score block, and the 

\set Staff.implicitBassFigures = #'(0)

_expression_ in the music content. Is that correct? 

doing just the latter didn't work, but now I'm unsure how to proceed. Urs, this is for the Kayser project; is there a good place we can put that code?

Cheers,

A

If that's a bit too cryptic, here is an example that I generated with
Denemo (so pardon all the excess verbiage). I attach the output pdf ...
