Heheh, I suspected I would have to adjust this manually for every chord, but was in denial, hoping for someone to point me to a more general solution.

Thanks for the tip, this should work!

Subject: Multi-line chord modifiers

Hello,

I am looking for a way to print chord modifiers in separate lines. For example, I have the chord AMaj7(6)(9). What I want is to print the symbol "A", followed by vertically aligned:

Maj7

6

9

I can't find a property by which I can customize the chord alteration separator to be at least a line break. Can this be done?

Thanks in advance!

Updated example with an additional multiple markup function for the "Maj7" part, and using them together:

\version "2.19.15"

#(define-markup-command (major-seven layout props) ()

  "Produce a Major 7 chord symbol"

  (interpret-markup layout props

    #{\markup \line{  \small "Maj" \raise #0.7 \normalsize { 7 } } #}))

#(define-markup-command (two-stacked-extensions layout props top bot) (markup? markup?)

  "Produce a teeny column of strings"

  (interpret-markup layout props

    #{\markup \raise #3.2 { \teeny \line { " " \center-column { \lower #1.5 { #top } #bot } } } #}))

myChordExceptions = {

    <c e g b>1-\markup \major-seven

    <c e g a b d'>1-\markup { \major-seven \two-stacked-extensions 6 9 }

    <c e g a d'>1-\markup \two-stacked-extensions 6 9 

}

chExceptions = #(append (sequential-music-to-chord-exceptions myChordExceptions #t) ignatzekExceptions)

myChordSequence = \chordmode {

  \set chordChanges = ##t

  \set chordNameExceptions = #chExceptions

  c1:maj7

  c1:maj7.6.9

  c1:6.9

}

myMelody = \relative c' {

  e8 g c b ~ 2 

  e8 g a b d2 

  g,8 a c e d2 

}

\score {

  \new StaffGroup <<

    \new ChordNames \myChordSequence

    \new Staff {

      \myMelody

    }

  >>

}
