<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>

<h2 class="unnumberedsec">Adding an extra staff at a line break</h2>
<p>When adding a new staff at a line break, some extra space is
unfortunately added at the end of the line before the break (to fit in
a key signature change, which will never be printed anyway). The
workaround is to add a setting of
<code>Staff.explicitKeySignatureVisibility</code> as is shown in the example.
In versions 2.10 and earlier, a similar setting for the time signatures
is also required (see the example).

<h2 class="unnumberedsec">Changing MIDI output to one channel per voice</h2>
<p>When outputting MIDI, the default behavior is for each staff to
represent one MIDI channel, with all the voices on a staff amalgamated.
This minimizes the risk of running out of MIDI channels, since there
are only 16 available per track.
</p>
<p>However, by moving the <code>Staff_performer</code> to the <code>Voice</code>
context, each voice on a staff can have its own MIDI channel, as is
demonstrated by the following example: despite being on the same staff,
two MIDI channels are created, each with a different
<code>midiInstrument</code>.

<p>The <code>measureLength</code> property, together with

when using <code>\scaleDurations</code>, the scaling of durations makes it

<h2 class="unnumberedsec">Engravers one-by-one</h2>
<p>The notation problem, creating a certain symbol, is handled by plugins.
Each plugin is called an Engraver. In this example, engravers are
switched on one by one, in the following order:
</p>
<p>- note heads
</p>
<p>- staff symbol,
</p>
<p>- clef,
</p>
<p>- stem,
</p>
<p>- beams, slurs, accents,
</p>
<p>- accidentals, bar lines, time signature, and key signature.
</p>
<p>Engravers are grouped. For example, note heads, slurs, beams etc. form
a Voice context. Engravers for key, accidental, bar, etc. form a Staff
context.

<p>The property <code>systemStartDelimiterHierarchy</code> can be used to make
more complex nested staff groups. The command <code>\set
StaffGroup.systemStartDelimiterHierarchy</code> takes an alphabetical list of
the number of staves produced. Before each staff a system start
delimiter can be given. It has to be enclosed in brackets and takes as
much staves as the brackets enclose. Elements in the list can be
omitted, but the first bracket takes always the complete number of
staves. The possibilities are <code>SystemStartBar</code>,
<code>SystemStartBracket</code>, <code>SystemStartBrace</code>, and
<code>SystemStartSquare</code>.
