guitarchordschemes's Issues

Big line for the nut

First thanks for this package! Is that possible to have a thicker line for the nut ?

Ukulele chord schemes combined with the leadsheets package

I am trying to combine a leadsheet songbook with some ukulele chords based on this guitarchordschemes package.

I am trying to add some chords to each leadsheet song (\begin{song}...\end{song}).
Inside there I add:

\chord{
    \chordscheme[
        name = Em,
        finger = {4/3,3/2,2/1}
    ]
} % with or without \chord{} the effect is the same

Also before the \begin{document} I've set:

\usepackage{guitarchordschemes}
% ...
\setchordscheme{
  strings = 4 ,
  chord-frets = 5 ,
  tuning = {,,,} ,
  rotate = -90 ,
  x-unit = 1.333mm , y-unit = 2mm ,
  finger-radius = .25 ,
  line-width = .6pt ,
  restrict-bounding-box
}

However this is rendered with some noise as:

How can I make this work the expected way? Just 4 strings, the finger dots and the chord name on top?

For reference, I started from: https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/318670/generating-ukulele-chord-diagrams

String overlaps scale/fingering icon

image

I don't have much experience with tikz so I may be doing something wrong here. But I'd like to have the roots have a solid background, rather than being overlapped by the string. I also can't seem to change the finger-style text colour to white.

image

Any advice would be very welcome!

Edit: I've managed to move the strings to a background layer, they aren't as thick a line as before, but at least they're not overlapping the text. See the image below, and the changes I made.

image

Line 51

\pgfdeclarelayer{bg}    % declare background layer
\pgfsetlayers{bg,main}  % set the order of the layers (main is the standard layer)

Line 535

\begin{pgfonlayer}{bg} % Draw strings on BG layer
\draw
 (0,{.8*(\gcs@string@number-\gcs@string)})
 node[transform shape,
 label={[text height=1.5ex,text depth=.2ex]left:%
   \gcs@string@name@format\csuse{guitar@string@\gcs@string}}] {}
 --++(1.5*\gcs@chordscheme@fret@number,0) ;
\end{pgfonlayer} % End draw strings on BG layer

Line 580

\begin{pgfonlayer}{bg} % Draw strings on BG layer
\draw
 (0,{.8*(\gcs@string@number-\gcs@string)})
 node[transform shape,
 label={[text height=1.5ex,text depth=.2ex]%
   left:\gcs@string@name@format\csuse{guitar@string@\gcs@string}}] {}
 --++(1.5*\gcs@scales@fret@number,0) ;
\end{pgfonlayer} % End draw strings on BG layer
