General Discussion / Re: Stringed Instruments
You can (sort of) do this already if all you want is a printed sheet.

In the staff setup (can't remember the exact words, as I haven't got NWC to hand), you can specify the number of lines to show. Then you can add the fret numbers as text at the appropriate positions.

It's not the prettiest, but I have used it a lot for bass 'tab'. I tend to have a single line stave too, with the rhythm on, and place the fingering text on that stave - positioned to show on the necessary string on the 4 'string' stave.

General Discussion / Re: A heated argument at last night's music practice.
For me, as a non-expert, it looks like the measure is divided into 4 equal parts - at the beginning you have a 1/4 rest followed by a 1/8 rest, rather than a dotted 1/4 rest.

Because of this, I would tend to go with the second (tied 1/8 notes) option, rather than the first.

Just my tuppence.
