Comment #4 on issue 1863 by [email protected]: Explicit fingering direction (^3)
has no effect if Fingering#'direction is set
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1863
Longstanding bug, patch is rather simplistic. The only conceivable
drawback is that the behavior being called for in this issue may be
unwanted in special situations: an explicit direction will not be overriden
by voice combining and/or part combining.
The presence of this issue as well as the mailing list discussion suggests
that the aggravation of having the explicit directions ignored in
directional contexts is larger.
Put on countdown for 2013/02/13 16:00 UTC.
