Currently, it is not possible to get the fret diagram on the right side of the image below.
Except by a workaround that becomes quickly annoying if some similar fret diagrams are involved into the score. Which is not uncommon.

I need to add a related point to this. Besides partial barres, the existing bar feature also does not allow other non-barre strings to be fretted.
Eg, see the attached fingering for the popular Gm7 chord. This is a common jazz voicing for the chord, and one of the best fingerings. As you can see, besides the partial barre, you also need to play another string, with another finger, at the same fret. The current software does not permit this.
This type of fingering also comes up when using the thumb to wrap around. Please accommodate this when you perform this upgrade.
Thanks!

I'm going to see if I can implement this.
