In working through the figured bass section of NR as part of the GDP, I've found something that seems counter-intuitive to me.
When entering a chord, the lowest note comes first, followed by the higher notes: <c e g>2. In the figured bass examples I find on the web, the lowest steps are generally (perhaps always -- I can't find a counterexample right now) located on the bottom in figured bass: 6 4 But with the default stacking direction, to get this output you must enter the figure numbers in reverse order: <4 6>2 <6 4> will produce: 4 6 6 4 This behavior can be changed by altering stacking-dir of BassFigureAlignment. My question: Should the default value of stacking-dir result in <4 6> producing 6 4 as I think?
