Hi Robert,

I am not an expert in FB in lilypond, but this appears to be fixed in 2.19.44 at least. Can you upgrade?

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for your quick reply.

Yes, I have installed 2.19.44-1. I had already tested the MWE with 2.19.40 but that failed, giving me the error message:

- - - - - - - - 

Figured_bass_horizontal_alignment-test-MWE_ly.tex:24:20: error: symbol expected

\context { 

                   \Staff = "lower" \FiguredBass

Figured_bass_horizontal_alignment-test-MWE_ly.tex:24:37: error: not a context mod

\context { \Staff = "lower" 

                                    \FiguredBass

Figured_bass_horizontal_alignment-test-MWE_ly.tex:27:10: error: syntax error, unexpected end of input, expecting '}'

        }

- - - - - - - -

Unfortunately 2.19.44 gives me the same error message.

So I will have to change something in the file but at present I've no idea what that should be. (Nice and rather harmless example of the Law of Conservation of Trouble)

Thank you anyway,

Best regards,

Robert
