Hello folks,
In a MusicXML version of Amazing Grace I have, there is the syllable ‘Was’ on a
first eighth, and then another eighth without lyrics beamed with the first one:
<note default-x="123.78" default-y="-40.00">
<pitch>
<step>E</step>
<alter>-1</alter>
<octave>4</octave>
</pitch>
<duration>6</duration>
<voice>1</voice>
<type>eighth</type>
<stem>up</stem>
<beam number="1">begin</beam>
<lyric number="1">
<syllabic>single</syllabic>
<text font-family="FreeSerif" font-size="11">Was</text>
<extend/>
</lyric>
</note>
<note default-x="170.19" default-y="-35.00">
<pitch>
<step>F</step>
<octave>4</octave>
</pitch>
<duration>6</duration>
<voice>1</voice>
<type>eighth</type>
<stem>up</stem>
<beam number="1">end</beam>
</note>
musicxml2ly and museScore produce an extender such as:
while Finale and Sibelius don’t:
Is one way ‘better’ than the other?
Thanks for your help!
JM
