In a book with guitar music I'd like to position the fingering numbers
at the left sides of the notes.
I already found out that notes have to be written as chords, i.e.
<a'>, and tried to put
\set fingeringOrientations = #('left') in the layout block, which didn't work.
Then tried the \score block, which didn't work either.
It is as if I can only set the fingering orientations inside every
newly created staff throughout the whole book.
Is this true, or did I just not find out how to do it properly?
Thanks.
