Hi all,

I am currently reproducing a continuo part, and am having trouble achieving a particular effect: printing a continuo figure in the *lower *position only. So in the first example in the attached image, I want the '3' to appear on the lower line, at the same height as the '4' to the left of it.

I've tried inserting a dummy figure above it and using \once \hide FiguredBass.BassFigure, but it hides both figures. And I tried turning Bass Extender Lines on and then hiding the line stencil (see second example), but this doesn't seem to work either.

Anyone got an idea how to do this, or what I might be doing wrong? (aside from messing with the offsets, which is a bit approximate for me).

And while I'm here: is there any easy way of adjusting the font size of the continuo *figures*, but not the *symbols *(#, b, etc)?

Regards,

Brent.

There's an ill documented parameter that you can set to get the desired alignment:

<<
\relative c' { \clef bass
  g2 ~ g
}
\figures {
  \override BassFigureAlignment.stacking-dir = #UP
  <7 3>2 <6 4>4 <3>
