Hello,
Thanks a bunch to Mats for the help with inserting multiple words under
the same note. I can't believe I missed that in the lyric section.
Anyway, now my problem is I can't figure out a good way to line up lyrics
properly when there are ties or slurs that differ from verse to verse.
Here is my project:
\score {
\notes {
<<
\context Voice = "all" {
\clef treble \cadenzaOn \tieDotted e'1 fis'2~ fis'2 g'1
}
\lyricsto "all" \new Lyrics \lyrics {
\override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #-1
"All who see me" scoff at me
}
\lyricsto "all" \new Lyrics \lyrics {
\override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #-1
"Indeed many dogs surr" -- round __ me
}
>>
}
}
First, my \tieDotted doesn't seem to be doing anything. Do I have that in
the wrong place?
Then, I want the word "at" in the first verse to line up under the third
note. Because of the tie, it refuses. I can't seem to get the extender
line on "round" that I want unless I have the tie. So I'm stuck.
I've played games in other packages like Finale with invisible voices and
such, but I was hoping that I wouldn't have to get in to that.
Thanks for any help,
Jean
