I am aware that open strings are notated above the nut. But is it possible to notate open strings alongside fingerings in the Legend Row, underneath the Fretboard?

Thanks

Hi Doug,

How would you notate the open strings? I'm guessing with an 'O' for Open? Currently you'd need to enter custom labels for all the notes, and set the legend row label to Custom, to get them all in the same row..

Yes I would like to notate an open string with an O, and going further an X to avoid a string. Both O and X in the Legend row.

Hi Justin,

Thanks for your quick response. Could use some more guidance. Would you provide me with some step by step direction, or even better some screen shots of how I can place an O and/or X under the diagram in the Legend row.
Thanks, Doug
