Thanks, for your suggestion. I had tried something similar but I need to
define new Chordname for each root note. I thought it could be
calculated by lilypond once the list of intervalls has been specified
along with the strings to play them with.

Yes, that would be nice :-)

Hi Julien

This is another (simpler) way. I've commented with % what is not needed:

\version "2.19.54"
%\include "predefined-guitar-fretboards.ly"

myChords = \relative {
 \set minimumFret = #3
 1
}

<<
 \new ChordNames {
   \chordmode { g1 }
 }
 \new FretBoards {
   %\set FretBoards.minimumFret = #3
   \myChords
 }
 \new TabStaff {
   %\set TabStaff.minimumFret = #3
   \myChords
 }

We have the required information in predefined fretboards.  Maybe we
should have a general function for substituting chords with the
predefined shapes rather than only do that as part of fretboard display.

you can define your chord by assembling the six "real" pitches:

% --
g_full = #(define-music-function (parser location) ()
#{
  <g, d g b d' g'>
#})

{
  \new TabStaff {
\chordmode {
  g1 \g_full g
}
  }
}
% --

adding common guitar chords

2017-02-13 Thread Julien Cubizolles 
Hello list, I'm very new to lilypond so please forgive me if what I'm
asking is obvious but I needed to type some chords commonly used on a
guitar: for instance a g major chord using all 6 chords would be played
with fingers at frets 355433 (from the bass). In chord mode, I could
only achieve it with the following

--8<---cut here---start->8---
\chordmode {\set TabStaff.minimumFret = #2
\set TabStaff.restrainOpenStrings = ##t

--8<---cut here---end--->8---

That's a lot to type for something so common. Is there a way to define
such a chord and name it (with the "full" suffix for example) so that in
chordmode one could use g:full, c:full and so on ? Maybe there is
already a snippet for it but I couldn't find it so far.

Thanks for your help,
