[frogs] Capo-ChordNames

[Carl Sorensen <c_sorensen@xxxxxxx>]

If you are fine to have the Capo chord names and the non-capo chord names
stacked, then it's possible to do something like:

myChords = \chordmode {
  c1 g f:7 c
}"

<<
  \new ChordNames = "capoNames" {
      \transpose c b {
        \myChords  
      }
  }
  \new ChordNames = "originalNames" {
    \myChords
  }
>>


Which is what Trevor was suggesting.

And a music function could probably be written to make all of that happen
automatically

e.g. 

\capo 3 \myChords

could be used as syntax to do the transposition and create both ChordNames
contexts.

Of course, this wouldn't handle the horizontal setting; to do that you
really would need to modify the ChordNames engraver.

HTH,

Carl
