Re: Fingering

[TIM HUCKER]

Sorry about the misposting - a slip of the finger after a long day!

 

Will try your solutions tonight on Lilypond 2.2.2.

 

Many thanks

Also, always tell which version of LilyPond you use, otherwise you
might get an answer that's irrelevant for your version.

That's not supported for the moment. In LilyPond up to version 2.2.6,
you could do it with inline LaTeX code, something like
c4^"$\underline{3}$"

fingeringOrientations is only relevant when you have a chord.
To set the direction of all fingerings below the stave, use
\override Fingering #'orientation = #down
or simply use
c_3
instead of
c-3
to force a single fingering below the note. Similarly,
c^3
gives a fingering above the note.
