Hi everyone, I’m using ver 2.15.38 (since the 2.16 release isn’t out), and
being the first time I’ve used an unstable build I don’t know if this is a bug,
since there are no examples on the website that directly correspond.
I’m setting a piece for three voices with sections that repeat for the purpose
of the next verse. So what I want to have happen is (view with a monospace
font):
Top voice - - - - - - - |: - - - - - - - - - :|
Lyrics, blah blah blah First verse lyrics
Second verse lyrics
Middle voice - - - - - |: - - - - - - - - - :|
Lyrics, blah blah blah First verse lyrics
Second verse lyrics
Bottom voice - - - - - |: - - - - - - - - - :|
Lyrics, blah blah blah First verse lyrics
Second verse lyrics
Diligently following the instructions at
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/notation/techniques-specific-to-lyrics#lyrics-and-repeats
, there is no trouble with a single-staff system as in the example, but adding
another voice causes all the text in the second verse to drop to the
bottom-most staff, like this:
Top voice - - - - - - - |: - - - - - - - - - :|
Lyrics, blah blah blah First verse lyrics
Middle voice - - - - - |: - - - - - - - - - :|
Lyrics, blah blah blah First verse lyrics
Bottom voice - - - - - |: - - - - - - - - - :|
Lyrics, blah blah blah First verse lyrics
Second verse lyrics
Second verse lyrics
Second verse lyrics
I have worked on this problem for days now, and I have no idea if I’m doing
something wrong or if this is a real bug. I could not find any examples that
dealt with volta repeats of different text with more than a single voice.
Please, please help!
Below is a small example with actual code (25 lines due to formatting).
Un-comment the commented lines to see the issue.
Thanks in advance for any assistance!
