:::::: Did I mention that chances are high that one might have difficulty combining the Helmholz syntonic comma arrows with the quartertone accidentals using existing fonts?  I mean, the idea of combining these two things together seems fairly new, as Helmholz notation itself has a different symbols for 11-limit demisharps and seems to lack symbols for both 11-limit sesquisharps and sesquiflats... --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 10:38, 3 October 2020 (UTC)

::::::: [MS paint ] I guessed that, and that's why I decided to try a version myself (SVG images, supported by the wiki software, can be created with Inkscape, but it's not as easy for beginners, I have some experiences with it). [Did I mention] The font mentioned above was a miss, as was the [https://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/block/musical_symbols/images.htm Unicode "Musical Symbols Block"], the latter only contains one flavor for quarter-tone accidentals, so I have to pick the ones you use from [https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Quarter_tone_accidentals Wikipedia Commons]. --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 10:50, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
::::::: PS: please be a bit less agile on your questions/comments. Changing questions afterwards creates edit conflicts to the one who want's to answer (this is the 5th time I try to save my answer). --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 10:50, 3 October 2020 (UTC)


:::::: I can't believe I forgot about this, but I honestly think that there are other 11-limit chromas that need to be addressed besides just 33/32, as 45/44 and 55/54 seem to also be worth taking account of.  Even though I'm in favor of not only making a new version of Helmholz/Ellis notation in which the current symbol for raising by 33/32 is replaced by the mainstream demi-sharp accidental but also putting the current Helmholz/Ellis symbol for raising by 33/32 to use in representing one of the other 11-limit chromas instead, the fact is that I don't have the capabilities nor the permissions to do such a thing myself... --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 10:47, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
