Building advanced chords
Hello!
I would be especially glad if i could build chords like this -
I mean stacked alterations. I was trying to upload own chrods.xml file and add something like "^ - upper index, v - lower index". That chord from photo then could be like this = "A7(^b9v#5)" - this could bring musescore to the next level in chord editing, because now any alterated chord looks like looong and hard to read text.
I would also appreciate feature about upper structure - building chords one on top of another (not inversion). That writing can look like "A7(b9)|C7"
.

@Shoichi I want to add chord modification both in upper and lower index, not in single line like you showed. (look at the A7 photo example).
The stacking of alterations can only be one by editing the XML files - but not chords.xml - that's only for historical compatibility. Instead it's chords_std and chords_jazz depending which style you have selected. A search for previous threads on the subject will give you pointers.
To create polychords, just create the chords themselves separately - MuseScore will stack them automatically. The one you enter first will be displayed on the bottom, so enter C7, then ____, then A7(b9) as three separate chords on the same beat.
