Subject: vertical spacer in figured bass

 

Hi List,

 

I can't seem to find how to do what I imagined would be a fairly simple thing 
to code. I have a figured bass sequence that looks like this in the original:

 

4 #--------

2

7 8--------

 

It's fairly obvious from the layout that the 4 goes to a major 3rd, the 7 goes 
to an octave, and the 2 drops out. But doing this requires some sort of 
vertical spacer that I'm not sure how to code. When I write the following 
(pseudo-code):

 

< 4 2 7 > < _+ _ 8 >

 

the underscore in the middle of the second figure is ignored. 

 

So in the abstract: is there some way to insert an extra line into a figured 
bass figure, so that the numbers align with those of the previous sign?

 

Cheers,

 

A
