Re: Moving guitar fingering orientations

I just got around to doing this, but when I look at LM 4.4.2 it already 
says, immediately above the examples,

"To control the placement of the fingering of a single note using this 
command it is necessary to write it as a single note chord by placing angle 
brackets round it."

Seems clear enough to me but, as people seem to miss it, I'll do as you 
suggest and put it in a warning box.
