I am transcribing some church music in an effort to make it easier to follow. These are chants with multiple words for a note. it appears that the words are centered on the note and are allowed to overflow the staff line.
I would be happy if I could eliminate the line to the left that joins the two staffs, or if the notes and lyrics could be shifted to the right. I've enclosed my ly file and would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks for creating this software. It is a wonderful piece of work, but challenging for the casual user.
