<h2 class="unnumberedsec">Adding a figured bass above or below the notes</h2>
<p>When writing a figured bass, here’s a way to specify if you want your
figures to be placed above or below the bass notes, by defining the
<code>BassFigureAlignmentPositioning #'direction</code> property (exclusively
in a <code>Staff</code> context). Choices are <code>#UP</code> (or <code>#1</code>),
<code>#CENTER</code> (or <code>#0</code>) and <code>#DOWN</code> (or <code>#-1</code>).
</p>
<p>As you can see here, this property can be changed as many times as you
wish. Use <code>\once \override</code> if you don’t want the tweak to apply
to the whole score.
</p>
<pre class="verbatim">bass = { \clef bass g4 b, c d e d8 c d2}
continuo = \figuremode {
< _ >4 < 6 >8
\once \override Staff.BassFigureAlignmentPositioning #'direction = #CENTER
<5/> < _ >4
\override Staff.BassFigureAlignmentPositioning #'direction = #UP
< _+ > < 6 >
\set Staff.useBassFigureExtenders = ##t
\override Staff.BassFigureAlignmentPositioning #'direction = #DOWN
< 4 >4. < 4 >8 < _+ >4
}
\score {
<< \new Staff = bassStaff \bass
\context Staff = bassStaff \continuo >>
}

<h2 class="unnumberedsec">Avoiding collisions with chord fingerings</h2>
<p>Fingerings and string numbers applied to individual notes will
automatically avoid beams and stems, but this is not true by default
for fingerings and string numbers applied to the individual notes of

overridden.

<h2 class="unnumberedsec">Manually break figured bass extenders for only some numbers</h2>
<p>Figured bass often uses extenders to indicate continuation of the
corresponding step. However, in this case lilypond is in greedy-mode
and uses extenders whenever possible. To break individual extenders,
one can simply use a modifier \! to a number, which breaks any
extender attributed to that number right before the number.
