Subject: Forced lyric hyphen
Is there a tweak/override that can be applied which will force a particular
lyric hyphenEvent to always appear show its hyphen (moving lyrics/notes
around if needed)? I’m trying to deal with hyphenated words
(“loving-kindness” in this particular example) and the hyphenEvent hyphen
disappears under some circumstances if I use it exclusively and manually
inserting a text hyphen into one of the syllables makes for an inconsistent
double hyphen in others:
\version "2.20.0"
\new Staff
<<
\new Voice = "mel" { g' g' g' g' }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "mel" { lov -- ing -- kind -- ness }
\new Staff
<<
\new Voice = "mel" { g'( f') g'( f') g'( f') g'( f') }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "mel" { lov -- ing- -- kind -- ness }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "mel" { lov -- \once \override
LyricHyphen.minimum-distance = #10.0 ing -- kind -- ness }
