this doesn't work

        c4\3
It does! This avoids a string number indication in standard notation and leads to a correct fret number in tablature. See Default tablatures in the Notation Reference.

and this does:

        <c\3>4
This basically has the same effect but a string number indication is added in standard notation.

a-ha, ok!

I don't use tablatures, so I didn't realize that, sorry for my confusion.
Then it makes sense to me.

But the original "issue" remains though:

should the following example (and the larger one in my first post) to be expected to work? if yes (and I'm not doing something wrong), then there's a bug.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

music = { <c>4 <c> }
fingers = {s4\2 s4-\rightHandFinger #2}

\score {
     << \new Staff \context Voice = "A" \music
        \context Voice = "A" \fingers
     >>
}

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

the quote:

"String numbers [, harmonics and right hand fingerings] *must* be defined inside a chord construct even if there is only a single note."

is from the Notation Reference manual.
This should be adjusted!

It seems so :)

thanks and greetings,

Vicente
