Re: Having an actual hyphen in the lyrics?

[Kira Garvie]

Hi Carl,

What do you mean by a code sample? I am sorry to be so ignorant - I was told I would be using MuseScore, then day one of this gig told "here, learn Lilypond instead" so I had to kind of crash-course this! those are very different little beasts!

Thank you!

Best,

Kira

    So if I get the right: You want to have the hyphen under the tied note?

You could also do "on -"  instead of on for the lyric  (and it shouldn't be  a hyphen, it should be a dash -- which is another special character).

You will get better help if you will send an actual code sample...

Thanks,

Carl
