Subject: | Re: Unable to italicize lyrics in 2.18, 2.19 |

I'm not top posting.Hi,For many years I have used the documented instructions to italicize lyrics,e.g. \score { << \new Lyrics \with { \override LyricText.font-shape = #'italic \override LyricText.self-alignment-X = #LEFT } { \dialogue } \new Staff { \new Voice { \music } }(example from 2.18 notation reference) However, font-shape is no longer listed as an interface for LyricText andthis instruction appears to be ignored. If it's been removed intentionally,is there a replacement or workaround? Thanks, Paul
This code: music = \relative { { a'4 a a a } } dialogue = \lyricmode {la la la la } } \score { << \new Lyrics \with { \override LyricText.font-shape = #'italic \override LyricText.self-alignment-X = #LEFT } { \dialogue } \new Staff { \new Voice { \music } }
}Gives the attached italicised lyrics. Also, since the examples in the NR are italicised, it means the command must work. Perhaps your installed fonts have changed?
