Fingering Diagram Plugin for MuseScore 3.x is a tool to create scores with instrument fingering diagrams.

### Introduction
This is a plugin that automatically adds fingering diagram/chart for different musical instruments (initially for windwood) to the score. Note that if the staff instrument is not a wind instrument (`wind.*`) then no fingering will be applied. Those are the instruments currently supported:
## Introduction
This is a plugin that automatically adds fingering diagram/chart for different musical instruments (initially for windwood) to the score. Note that if the staff instrument is not wind (`wind.*`) or brass (`brass.*`) then no fingering will be applied. Those are the instruments currently supported:

* Flute (wind.flutes.flute)
* Piccolo (wind.flutes.flute.piccolo)
* Soprano and Alto Recorder (wind.flutes.recorder)
* Saxophone (wind.reed.saxophone)
* Low and Tin Whistles (wind.flutes.whistle)
* Xaphoon (wind.reed.xaphoon)
* Tuba (brass.tuba)
* Clarinet (wind.reed.clarinet)

### Installation
## Installation
* If using MuseScore version 3 then download the [plugin](https://github.com/eduardomourar/fingering-diagram/archive/master.zip) and unzip it.

* Install using the [instructions](https://musescore.org/en/handbook/3/plugins#installation) in the MuseScore 3.x Handbook, which typically involves copying the QML file to the local MuseScore Plugin directory.

* This plugin relies on **Fiati** font being installed, which can be downloaded here: https://github.com/eduardomourar/fiati/releases
For windows 10 users: Make sure to install the font for "All Users" or MuseScore (and thus this plugin) won't have access to it.

### Known issues
## Known issues

Sometimes the diagrams are placed too close together. In order to improve readability, you can either make the font smaller, or set the [minimum note distance](https://musescore.org/en/handbook/3/measure#options) to 1.5sp or higher.

## Development

To help build the proper fingering diagrams, you should consider:

1. Spreadsheet contaning most of current diagrams [here](./fingering.ods)
2. Use the online Fiati fingering diagram builder (all credits to [Angus Moncrieff](https://github.com/gusmoney)): https://fiati-fingerings-builder.netlify.app/
