See Fingerings and accidentals . This fix offsets the LH guitar fingering to avoid accidentals.

However, this "pre-offset" can cause a problem, especially when applying multiple fingerings. One example is where the user has added an extra vertical offset to the style, as in the attached score. The added fingering is now placed well above the note accidental, but the offset fix is still being applied, even though not necessary. Compare the position of the "3" on the two notes below:

Suggestion: Adjust the code, so that if the user changes the vertical offset in the style dialog, it ignores any pre-applied horizontal offset.

I am still not sure what the intended result was, but am inclined to think the style setting simply doesn't make sense anymore.
