Re: Rendering Two Dots Above a Character

[Valentin Petzel]

You’re welcome, but it isn’t much of an effort.
There is some unnescessary logic that ensures that this produces correct 
labels if the string tuning is set to a different pitch. If this is not 
required the whole thing can be simplified by picking the root label from a 
list, similar to your original example.

Cheers,
Valentin
