Fixed in cvs. I needed to call setReadOnly (true) on the QTextEdit.

Fixed in cvs. Now it will abort editing or selecting a chord.

Added a quick questionYesNo in the guitar chord editor before adding a
chord to the ChordMap.

New layout changes should be much more user friendly. Please double
check this since UIs are quite subjective as to their usability.

At this time I have no clear way on what is the best way to remove Note
or Barre objects from the FingeringConstructor. Perhaps I will need to
have two modes: Insert and Delete. Any ideas or design patterns I could
use here?

X is used by engraving programs like Lilypond to denote when a string
should be muted. O is used to denote an string that should be played
without using a finger.

Again let me know how I have done to be assured that I have really fixed
the problems you gave.
