New issue 1330 by [email protected]: adapt the \skip command to automatically-aligned lyrics mode
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1330 NR 2.1.2 states that "The \skip command must be followed by a number, but this number is ignored in lyrics which derive their durations from the notes in an associated melody through \addlyrics or \lyricsto. Each \skip skips a single note of any value, irrespective of the value of the following number." Which means that right now you have to do << \new Voice = "foo" { b b b b b b b b } \new Lyrics \lyricmode { \skip 1 blah4 } %% BUT: \new Lyrics \lyricsto "foo" { \repeat unfold 4 \skip 1 blah }
>>
I suggest that either \skip wouldn't require a number when in automatically-aligned \lyricsto mode, or that the number indicates the number of syllables to skip (rather than a duration), which would allow users not to use the \repeat unfold hack. _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
