The key here, in my opinion, is to set the fret diagrams as markups, rather
than as music.
Thanks so much! Here's my code:
Great job on providing a small example! That was helpful to see what you

The only problem with the example is that it wouldn't completely compile,
because the music and lyrics were missing. It's much easier if you provide
those.
Please forgive me for any oversight of the protocol here, as this is my

The only oversight I see is that you put your mail at the top of another
unrelated post. Please don't post your reply to the top of a full post, and
when you start a new thread, don't do it by replying to a previous post.
With that said, here's how I'd attack your problem. I've created some markup

setting fretboard diagrams at the top of the page
Good afternoon! I've got a few things I'm brewing right now, but the
most pressing is that I'm looking to set all of the chord diagrams for a
lead sheet at the top of the page under the title, and modify the
spacing of the diagrams to be centered on the page and have padding
between each diagram.
Here are the other things I've been struggling to find documentation on:
Changing the size of the chord names above the fretboard diagrams
Inserting markup between the diagrams to indicate that they are
different options of the same chord with the word "or"
Thanks so much! Here's my code:
\storePredefinedDiagram #default-fret-table
\chordmode { e' }
#ukulele-tuning
#"4-3-(;4-3;4-3-);x;"
\storePredefinedDiagram #default-fret-table
\chordmode { e'' }
#ukulele-tuning
#"x;4-2;4-3;2-1;"
chord_diagrams = \chordmode { c e e' e'' f f:m }
\header {
title = "Steven Universe Theme"
composer = "Rebecca Sugar, Aivi & Surasshu"
tagline = ##t
}
%these are the chord diagrams at the top of the page
<<
\new ChordNames { \chord_diagrams }
\new FretBoards {
\set Staff.stringTunings = #ukulele-tuning
\override FretBoard.fret-diagram-details.fret-count = #3
\override FretBoard.fret-diagram-details.finger-code = #'in-dot
\override FretBoard.fret-diagram-details.open-string = "ܘ"
\override FretBoard.fret-diagram-details.dot-radius = #.37
\override FretBoard.fret-diagram-details.top-fret-thickness = #3.6
\override FretBoard.fret-diagram-details.dot-label-font-mag = #.76
\override FretBoard.size = #3.6
\chord_diagrams
}

%end of chord diagrams
\score {

\new ChordNames {
\SUchords
}
\new Staff {
\new Voice = "melody" {
\melody }
}
\new Lyrics {
\lyricsto "melody" {
\SUlyrics
}
}

}
Please forgive me for any oversight of the protocol here, as this is my
first interaction with the mailing list.
Thanks again!

First time I try to change color of lilypond elements.
This is what I did to change fingering color:
\version "2.19.82"
{ c' \finger \markup { \with-color #red 1 }}
Is there a better way?
{ c' -\tweak color #red -1 }
