Thank you (orientation . #'landscape) works nice!

2) How should it look like?

I found I can do it simply this way, as long as the finger dots are large enough so one can read it without a magnifier:

%#(set-default-paper-size "a4" 'landscape)

\markup {

" "

\override #'(size . 10 )

\override #'(fret-diagram-details . ((finger-code . in-dot) (orientation . #'landscape)))

\fret-diagram-verbose #`(

(place-fret 6 5 "R/3")

(place-fret 5 4 "III/2")

(place-fret 4 2 "V1/1")

)

}

Would be nice to avoid the cutoff of the nut and the ii. The nut should be printed as a thicker line. In the example case the missing first fret should be shown for my special needs in this case? The beginning practicioner might find the fret more easily.

I tried

(place-fret 0 0 "") and

(place-fret 0 1 "") But that makes a barree. I do not know how to avoid this.

I woundered, that

(place-fret 0 -1 "")

works and does not give an error?
