Re: Woodwind Fingerings

[Bernardo Barros]

I followed your instructions, I have now another kind of error, but it
still doesn't work.

I DID:

#(define-markup-command (woodfing layout props fingers)
                                (list?)
"Woodwind fingerings."
(interpret-markup layout props

                      (#:line

                        #:override
                        (font-size . -3)
                        (#:natural))
                       #:simple

                       #:simple

                       #:line
                       (#:override (font-size . -2) "g# "))))
                    #:override

                      #:draw-circle

                      #:draw-circle

))

                                     AND:


     c'^\woodfing #'(##t ##t ##t ##t ##t ##t)           

AND I GOT:
