Chord Symbols are horrible

If you really want assistance the best thing is to do a Save As …, call it FILENAME for Forum, cut it down to 1 instrument and 1 bar of music, and post it here. We don’t need to see any of the music, just the chord symbol settings to see what’s been done and what the effects are.

In theory, doing a reset to Factory Settings in Library Manager for Engraving Options and Collections should effectively undo any manual changes to chord symbols:

In practice, sometimes chord symbol elements get written into your userlibrary.xml file and have to be manually chopped out, especially if you’ve edited the composites. (Recent thread here.) But that’s the exception. The best thing to do is post the cutdown version of file so we can see what’s been done, and ideally also an image of the way you’d like your chords to look.

EDIT: Oops, I lied. You also have to go in to Project Default Chord Symbol Appearances and either Delete (trash can) or Reset to Default (circular arrow) any chord customizations that remain there.
