Comment #11 on issue 1483 by [email protected]: Lyric alignment is
wrong in 2.13.46
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1483
I agree with that, but don't have the spare 5 minutes to do it myself.
I've just made this example:
\paper {
system-system-spacing #'basic-distance = #20
% between-system-space = 5 \cm
% ragged-last-bottom = ##f
}
\score {
\new ChoirStaff <<
\new Staff = women <<
\new Voice = "sopranos" {
\voiceOne
fis4 fis fis fis | \break
fis4 fis fis fis
}
\new Lyrics \with { alignAboveContext = "women" } {
\lyricsto sopranos { La la la la la la la la }
}
>>
>>
}
which uses the alternative way of putting lyrics above the staff, and as
you can see, there isn't the extreme spacing problem with the other
method. I could live with the fix to this being a statement in the NR
explaining how lyric placement is affected by how the lyric alignment is
specified, given that the method I'm using here is an easy way to get well
placed lyrics.
