#### Fingering

Fingering objects are created by: Fingering_engraver and New_fingering_engraver

Standard settings:

`padding` (dimension, in staff space):
  `0.5`

  Add this much extra space between objects that are next to each other.

`avoid-slur` (symbol):
  `'around`

  Method of handling slur collisions. Choices are `around`, `inside`, `outside`. If unset, script and slur ignore eachother.

`slur-padding` (number):
  `0.2`

  Extra distance between slur and script.

`staff-padding` (dimension, in staff space):
  `0.5`

  Maintain this much space between reference points and the staff. Its effect is to align objects of differing sizes (like the dynamic p and f) on their baselines.

`self-alignment-X` (number):
  `0`

  Specify alignment of an object. The value -1 means left aligned, 0 centered, and 1 right-aligned in X direction. Values in between may also be specified.

`self-alignment-Y` (number):
  `0`

  like `self-alignment-X` but for Y axis.

`script-priority` (number):
  `100`

  A sorting key that determines in what order a script is within a stack of scripts.

`direction` (direction):
  `ly:script-interface::calc-direction`

  #UP or #DOWN, #LEFT or #RIGHT? (or a numerical value, #UP=1, #DOWN=-1, #LEFT=-1, #RIGHT=1, CENTER=0)

`font-encoding` (symbol):
  `'fetaNumber`

  The font encoding is the broadest category for selecting a font. Options include: `fetaMusic`, `fetaNumber`, `TeX-text`, `TeX-math`, `fetaBraces`, `fetaDynamic`

`font-size` (number):
  `-5`

  The font size, compared the `normal' size. 0 is style-sheet's normal size, -1 is smaller, +1 is bigger. Each step of 1 is approximately 12% larger, 6 steps are exactly a factor 2 larger. Fractional values are allowed.

This object supports the following interfaces: item-interface, self-alignment-interface, side-position-interface, text-interface, text-script-interface, font-interface, finger-interface, item-interface and grob-interface
