Greetings -
I'm running LY 2.19.32 under Win 7.
I'm trying to add chord names to fiddle tunes, and not having much luck. I used to add the chord names as markups on individual notes, but I was hoping chordNames would place the names all at one height, above the staff. Here's what I've tried, and it clearly does not work.
Should I be entering the chords and notes as parallel music?
How can I get the chords to appear above the staff?
I appreciate your time and attention,
Ralph
