Hi Trevor,

thanks, that works cleanly. In the meantime I found that it would actually better if syllables were only allowed to overlap on the right. It’s uncommon and seems odd/more difficult to read to have the syllable stick into span bar _at the left_.
But that’s a more involved task, of course.

Yours, Simon

following 19th century practice, I am using StaffGroup for choir scores.
When there are longer syllables at the end of a measure, they avoid to
overlap with the span bar, which costs horizontal space. I’d prefer this
to be turned off, but how? I might conduct a lengthy and imprecise
search over the manuals, but maybe someone can help out?
Sorry to be late picking this up.  I think this might do it:

\layout {
   \context {
     \Lyrics \remove Pure_from_neighbor_engraver
     \override LyricText #'whiteout = ##t
   }
}

Trevor
