Feature request #2 -accidental baseline control in Chords

It would be nice to have control over the baseline of flats and sharps in chord names. Currently, they seem to be tied into the character positioning of the font without a way to change them. If the chord accidental font could be chosen separately, I could make this work but currently, there seems no way to control their appearance. And when there’s an altered bass that has an accidental, I suspect that a “too high” accidental affects both the spacing of the slash and the distance of the bass note.

^^^ this will change the root accidental positioning. There’s not a setting to change the suffix accidentals, although I’ve done that (and the root at the same time) with a doricolib file. The Chord Symbol Kerning Pairs settings can help with chords with an altered bass.

Thanks, Fred, this is great news. I can see why I missed this since you have to reveal the feature to use it. Thanks again!
