to the chord charts is convenient in many ways.
You can …
Guitar
Ukulele
Mandolin
You should be familiar with the basics of using this tool to create simple chord sheets.
It's a good idea to add the chord diagrams as a final step.
After finishing a regular sheet.
There are two multi-page PDFs showing the core concepts.
1. What types of applications are intended.
2. How to add the chord diagrams.
You can select a chord diagram dictionary in the settings.
So you don't have to provide the chord diagrams yourself.
However, if the chord is not available in the dictionary, you can add a chord diagram definition yourself.
Please have a look at the examples.
These chars have a special meaning.
A valid guitar chord diagram definition has to match this pattern:
[0-9a-fx]{6}([0-4t]{6})?
Although it looks overwhelmingly technically complicated, it is very simple once you get the hang of it.
This is an example of a C7 chord. (without and with the fingering)
// C7 x32310 // C7 x32310032410
So it is 6 chars for the fret positions, and optionally 6 more chars for the fingering.
Have a look at this example with some fancy chords.
