Dear all,
As shown in the WME, in the figured bass line the figures with accidentals are
"top-aligned", which I find rather unworthy of LilyPond.

\layout {
\context { \Staff = "lower" \FiguredBass
\override BassFigure #'font-size = #-2
}
}

The ragged bottom line is undoubtedly caused by my making the figures a bit
smaller, but the default size of the figures, and the size difference between
figures and accidentals I also found very ugly and rather repelling. As far as
the size of the figures and accidentals is concerned I'm happy with the present
result.
Is there a way to change the vertical position either of the accidentals or of
the figures such that the figures with accidentals will be "bottom-aligned"?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Best regards,
Robert Blackstone
