I think I just need to take initiative with this. I've been thinking
about it for a while and what I'll do is in my spare time (what's
that?) I'll catalog some 'missing features' that would lead to better
tablature support and include visual examples from published music.
We can circulate it around on the list and everyone can add to it.
Then, the 'fretted strings' crowd can build a consensus on
prioritization. That way, there's a list of proposed features that
contributers can consult if they wish.
Can you prod me every so often so I don't get absorbed in work/life
and leave this on the shelf for too long? Just a simple 'how's the
list coming?' if I don't post anything for a few weeks.
Any progress here? David?
When I use a template in Frescobaldi for electric bass it doesn't
seems to work, I get a error message, see below. Besides that, the
tablature is placed above the notation by default which is not how it
should be imho. Also the tablature has beams, which is odd for
tablature...
