Indeed, there are frequently notes without figures (more often than not
in fact) and there are also multiple figures per note, and figures on
rests. Not sure what any of that has to do with this.

In the current LilyPond the figures are centered (visually speaking - I
don't know how they relate to internals such as note column) for
durations greater than 0 but too far to the left for the others (always
referring here to the case of a single figures on a note).

Simon Albrecht suggested I start a new thread for this (apologies for
any confusion)

Attached is a patch that fixes the centering of single bass figures over
notes of duration whole note and more. The duration is tested and a
translate applied horizontally if needed.

A test snippet is this:

8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><
<<

{

\time 4/2 c''\breve c'' c''1 c''

c''4 c'' c'' c''


}

\new FiguredBass {

\figuremode {

<_+>\breve <_-> <3>1 <3+>

<_+>4 <_-> <3> <3+>

}

}

>>
8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><8><

In version until now the single character figures are placed to the left
of the true center.


Centering bass figures on whole notes and longer

This is a patch that fixes
the centering of single bass
figures over notes of duration
whole note and more.

The duration is tested and a
translate applied horizontally
if needed.
