I apologize, if I'm mentioning issues that have already been addressed.
I just noticed that in a tab chord the horizontal placement of the dots is
relative is the first note in the chord (or the note on the highest string).
This places the dot too close or too far away to other notes in the chord.
For instance, if the first note in the dotted chord is on fret 9 and the
next note is on fret 10, the dot will be too close to the 10.
I also see that fret numbers in a chord are left justified instead of
centered. Would it be difficult to center the fret numbers instead of left
justifying them as an option? I think they look better centered ... and so
apparently does "Acoustic Guitar" magazine.
Thanks for your observations! Personally, I am out of time at the moment,
but these issues should at least be kept on the tracker.
@Valentin: I think this belongs to #810, could you please add it?
Thank you!
Marc
Thanks for the good work you are doing. I'm sure Lilypond will soon be the
ultimate guitar tab software.
