Hi Graham,
Yes I would consider this a bug:
1. It was working an 2.9.10
2. Quite often composers will place a figured bass symbol above a rest
usually meaning the play only the 3rd, 6th or whatever above the previous
bass note. ie. play the note or chord but not the bass. They are used
throughout the Locatelli Sonatas I'm transcribing, but now these figures are
missing.

Is this really a bug? I mean, what does a figured bass note actually
mean? Play a third and a sixth above... what?
I have little experienced with figured bass, so forgive me if I'm missing
something.

Hi everyone,
I've run into a bug with the figured bass added to the staff context. If
there is a figure above a rest the figure no longer appears. I've tried
the below code in lilypond 2.9.10 with no problems, the figures ( 6 in
the example below) show above the rest as expected.
Thanks
Trent
