Hello,
what is the procedure to position the numbers in the second column like this?:
6
4 3
and not:
6 3
4
as in this example:
So far I only managed to move the “3” down in Engrave Mode.

Is changing the baseline an option?
Another way is to show the numbers above the staff which in my opinion is the better place anyway with regard to practicality. Many continuo players today play from the score and with the figures above it’s easier to follow the other players/singers.
Of course you can use also a continuation line.
6, 4_3?

Interesting point. I have been trying that from time to time, but always end up keeping the figures below because in a score it looks better.
I would put it the other way around though – with the figures below, you don’t have anything between the bass line and the lyrics, taken that the singers are just above the bass.
Thank you Stefan,
I forgot, this option existed.
It solves my problem in this case.
It would be nice to be able to stack the numbers individually via the property panel.
I remember, when using Figurato and the lyric Popover - before Dorico came out with its own Figured Bass system - that we could input a (hard) space to bring a figure down.
