Dear fellow-listers,
I am editing a choral fugue (with orchestra) with lots of coloraturas. From the Fin2k3 handbook I learn that cross system hyphens are only possible when assigning an Alt-0160 to the first note of the new system with a following hyphen. So far so good. What I don't like is that the continued hyphens start way AFTER the first note of the system. Is there an easy way to have them start at least under the first note, maybe also before it (indicating, that the phrase in continuing)? I have tried assigning "Alt0160" + "-" + "Alt0160" to the first note which almost gives the result I want. The "-" under the first note is almost twice as long as the continuing hyphens, however. What can I do?
Thanks for any help!
Regards from Vienna, Mario.
I suspect that you are entering an m-dash or an n-dash (not a hyphen) for the syllable starting the next line. This would work, but as you say, these dashes are longer than hyphens are.
As an alternative, you can enter ONLY the blank followed by a hyphen as a syllable, then drag the blank syllable to the left to force the hyphen to move, too.
