Re: Guitar Chord Chart - Align Fret Diagram with Chord Names and Notes

[tone]

An elegant solution would be to define a fretboard with fret numbers on both
sides---one of them an invisible (phantom) character.  This is beyond my
level of expertise.  Anyone know how to code this?

Here is a /brute force/ solution using "\once\override LyricText
#'extra-offset = #'( /x/ . /y/ )", and a couple of questions:



How do I define a smaller command for "\once\override LyricText
#'extra-offset = #'(0.74 . 0.0)"?  Where do I put that command in my
LilyPond code?  For example:



Then use:


Using this solution, I need only define five offsets to get relatively
accurate diagrams:
1.  sp1 - for fret number "1"
2.  sp2 - for fret numbers "2"-"9";
3.  sp11 - for fret number "11"
4.  sp10 - for fret numbers "10" and "12"-"19"
5.  sp20 - for fret numbers "20" and "22".  (Fret number "21" occupies the
same space as "12".)

This is an ugly solution.  Any better ideas?
