Your Cdim7 chord is not constructed properly. To be properly notated will only take slight modification of what you have provided. First of all, a seventh chord (of any kind) must have a 1, 3, 5, and 7. Since we are talking about somekind of C chord, the notes must be some kind of C, some kind of E, some kind of G and some kind of B. In this example, you were defining the notes of a Cdim7 chord which are C, Eb, Gb, Bbb-- not C, A, Eb and F# that you had. What you had written, would be a 1, 6, 3, and 4 which is a theoretically incorrect way to write that chord.
