I use a very simple \path. Originally I simply added it as a \markup and used extra-offset to position it. But thanks to Abraham's blog post I changed that to use a fingering indication. However, I'm not really sure this is more reliable (for example against transposition): So this is what it looks like now: \set fingeringOrientations = #'(left) <d'' \finger \markup { \path #0.175 #'((moveto 0 -2) (rlineto 0 3) (rlineto 0.85 0) (moveto -1.5 2)) } > 8 Urs > Yours, Simon
