Re: Spacing and alignment in tablature

You need to make the ChordNames and FretBoards into parallel music with << and >>:

 

<<
\new ChordNames {
\myChords
}
\new FretBoards {
\set Staff.stringTunings = #ukulele-tuning
\myChords
}
>>

Subject: Spacing and alignment in tablature

Dear fellow Lilypond users

I'm having an issue with the spacing for my chord tablature. For one thing there's a big vertical gap between the chord names and the tablature and furthermore the chord names are not properly horizontally aligned with their respective tablatures.

I'm attaching the source and result of my work so far. Any guidance is appreciated.

I've based my work off of the example from the documentation regarding tablatures http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/common-notation-for-fretted-strings but I'm getting a slightly different output here.
