. This way you can place the same chordname at multiple places. If you
change the chord on dialog box the next mouse click will insert the new chord.
Modifying an deleting chord names works similar to modifying and deleting arbitrary text.
Chord names are exported to LilyPond. But LilyPond offers a limited number of modifiers. It is your responsibility to use only LilyPond conform chord names.
