Re: figured bass position

[Mats Bengtsson]

I tried your example, just adding a
\score{\basse}
to make it a complete file, and the result was just what you want,
namely figures above the stave. Without the rest of your code it's
hard to figure :-) out what happens in your score.

Try to make a small complete example that illustrates the problem.
