Oops - I did not send that to the listserv. This does that.On Tue, Jun 14, 2016 at 11:34 PM, Jeffery Shivers <[hidden email]> wrote:Hi Don,
If you're workinginlyricmodeand not markups,you can:
emphasize = {
\override Lyrics.LyricText.font-shape = #'italic
\override Lyrics.LyricText.font-series = #'bold
}\emphasize at the beginning of the text of your middle verse. You can change what 'emphasize' does - that's just the usage example from the documentation://If you're using markups:\bold { will make all this text bold } but not this, so just make sure you encapsulate the whole body.Which is explained better here.Hope that helps!-jOn Tue, Jun 14, 2016 at 10:51 PM, Don Gingrich <[hidden email]> wrote:Hi,
I've got a score with a treble and bass part and three
verses worth of lyrics in between. Is there some simple
way to make the middle set of lyrics a different colour
or bold or underlined -- anything to make it easier to keep
track of which verse? It's made more complicated since
we're a choir singing in Scottish Gaelic (and we're mostly
*not* fluent Gaelic speakers. i.e. learning lyrics more or
less phonetically.)
I can send the .ly file, but it would be really difficult to
extract a useful example, given my level of LilyPond
knowledge.
Thanks,
