Hello

I'm hoping someone can provide me with some insight on using the FretBoards
feature.  I'm trying to display the FretBoards for mandolin along with the
chordnames.  When I use the \include "predefined-mandolin-fretboards.ly",
the fretboards are an odd, generic looking six-string fretboard that I
can't identify for any specific instrument.  Changing the \include link to "
predefined-ukulele-fretboards.ly" gives the exact same odd fretboards.  If,
however, I use \include "predefined-guitar-fretboards.ly", I get perfect
fretboards with guitar chords.

Do I need to specify my instrument as Mandolin in another way?  Or do I
need to specify a tuning option?  I feel like this isn't complicated, but
I'm missing something.

A code example is below.


% Example %
\include "predefined-mandolin-fretboards.ly"

<<
  \new ChordNames {
    \chordmode {
      d1:m g c
    } }

  \new FretBoards {
    \chordmode {
      d1:m g c
    } }
>>

Thanks
Samuel
