Re: An unusual feature request concerning FiguredBass

Robert,

it's easier to help you if you provide a Minimal Working Example, 
otherwise it's hard to know what exactly you tried.

Anyway: It's not problem at all to create multiple 
FiguredBass-environments. The line between them is a bit more tricky; I 
once used a rhythm staff with all bar lines removed for this. For example:


\version "2.19.80"

<<
  \new StaffGroup <<
    \new Staff \relative f' { <f a>1 <e a> }
    \new Staff \with {
      \override VerticalAxisGroup.staff-staff-spacing.basic-distance = 5
    }
    { \clef bass f1 c }
  >>
  \new FiguredBass \with {
    \override VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-unrelatedstaff-spacing = 
#'((basic-distance . 0)
(minimum-distance . 0)
(padding . 0.5)
(stretchability . 0))
  }
  \figuremode {
    <5>2 <6> <6>1
  }
  \new RhythmicStaff \with {
    \omit TimeSignature
    \omit BarLine
  } {
    s1*2
  }
  \new FiguredBass \with {
    \override VerticalAxisGroup.nonstaff-relatedstaff-spacing = 
#'((basic-distance . 0)
(minimum-distance . 0)
(padding . 0.5)
(stretchability . 0))
  } \figuremode {
    <6>1 <6>
  }
>>


Unfortunately there remains a line connecting the RhythmicStaff to the 
rest of the system; there is a way to remove this, but I do not have 
time to look it up at the moment, I'm sorry.

Best
