Re: 2 Qns again (Figured BasS)

[Joshua Koo]

Thanks Mats, 

the problem now for me is 1. How to position the figures at the location where 
I want to. Figure I see are usually at the bottom of the notes but depending on 
the stem direction, lilypond sometimes place them on top of the notes.
2. would be how to resolve the figured bass into midi.
The documentation says there's limited support for figured bass. Those that 
means its not possible.
Then how would I be able to write out the chords hidden but heard during play 
back in the midi file?
