   9 When writing a figured bass, here's a way to specify if you want your
  10 figures to be placed above or below the bass notes, by defining the
  11 @code{BassFigureAlignmentPositioning #'direction} property (exclusively
  12 in a @code{Staff} context). Choices are @code{#UP} (or @code{#1}),
  13 @code{#CENTER} (or @code{#0}) and @code{#DOWN} (or @code{#-1}).
  14
  15 As you can see here, this property can be changed as many times as you
  16 wish. Use @code{\\once \\override} if you don't want the tweak to apply
  17 to the whole score.
