OpenStrings Dialog has to be invoked with the cursor on a chord comprising all the notes which you are the open strings of the instrument you want the TAB to be for. I see there is another use, not documented, where you execute it with the cursor not on a chord and it allows you to designate a re-entrant tuning (e.g. ukulele), but I'm not sure how much that is tested. > comprising a > It worked fine for Guitar Tab, but the help (see below) says that > others can be set, and I can't see how. > Directives >> Tablature >> seems to cause the tab to revert to > music. yes I see it does. This really needs writing up, to do mirrored music AND tab you have to first create your TAB staff then add a staff and change it to mirror the music in the TAB staff (it's called Mirrored Music because it just mirrors the music on the staff, not any other properties of the staff, such as if it is typeset as TAB ...) > And there may be an example of this under File >> Open >> Open > Example but apart from BaroqueLuteTab.denemo > which produces the strange?? strange = Baroque Lute > Typeset below the extract from the help file I cannot determine > which. ???
