The reason for tying lyrics to DevNull is for tying lyrics to the
soprano melody in a piano reduction. Say you have soprano and alto. In
almost all hymns, soprano carries the melody. But alto may be doing a
different melody. And in hymnals, the two lines are printed in piano
reduction form as given by partcombine, not polyphony form as done with
{\\}So, Han-Wen, if you have an alternative to DevNull for tying lyrics to a voice inside part-combine, it would be nice to see it listed in the user manual. In addition to lyrics not following melisma in DevNull, they also ignore manual beams. Ted On Fri, Jan 19, 2007 at 11:46:29AM +0100, Han-Wen Nienhuys wrote:

If the lyrics are aligned to devnull, it cannot find note heads to center the syllables on.
