There's unfortunately a problem with my idea. If I put the strumming
patterns into the same variable I use for ChordNames, it still
reserves space for them, even if I set chordChanges = ##t. See this
example for comparison. Is there any way around this? I would have
expected non-printed chords to
Hi. I'm curious if there's a way to re-use a variable containing
chords entered in \chordmode to create strumming patterns with
Pitch_squash_engraver and \improvisationOn. I like only having to
enter the chords once, so if I change something, I only need to do it
in one place, and I also would

along with Pitch_squash_engraver.
I agree that
