I am a music teacher who has just converted to lilypond after years of frustrating finale and sibelius usage. I transcribed a little piece on ukulele with tab and included chord fret diagram markups above the music, but it took me quite a while.Hi Ryan and welcome to LilyPond!The fret diagram markups was probably the hardest part to find and the longest, even with the copy and paste. For example, to do a C diagram, I did:^\markup { \fret-diagram #"w:4;4-o;3-o;2-o;1-3;" } ^Cthen I just copied and pasted for G and changed the dot placement.Is there any way to utilize the built in ukulele fretboard diagrams and tunings to plug those in a little easier? For example, I used the following string to put the C and G chord right on top of the sheet of music for easy reference:\include "predefined-ukulele-fretboards.ly"mychords = \chordmode { c g }<<\new ChordNames { \mychords }\new FretBoards { \set Staff.stringTunings = #ukulele-tuning \mychords }>>It seems that you replied to yourself in the end of your email.. I mean, you don't have to define every fretdiagram if you include the predefined fretboards that are built-in in lilypond.So what's your question?Here you can find a template for a lead sheet:
