Re: guitar scale diagram - change root

[Klaus Blum]

Hi Bart, 

yes, that's no problem. 
In the attached file, I've added a parameter "start". It's an integer to
indicate the tone number to start with, i.e. 1 for the root etc. This might
be a start.

Recently, there has been another thread that might be interesting for you as
well:

Cheers,
