Hi Eric,

in lilypond-book (lilypond)?

It looks like the

  \new FiguredBass {
    \figuremode {}
   }

is intended to be used along with music (e.g. under a staff).  I'm trying
to reference this in a latex document, where I'm using lilypond-book.

Can anyone give me any advice?  Should I simply not use lilypond for this,
and resort to straight latex macros?  Any pointers to same?


You can create the Roman numeral analysis with LilyPond using the \rN command defined here:
