Hi everyone!
When typesetting a melisma, LilyPond always left-aligns the syllable with the
first note. Is there a global way to center-align it instead, without having to
manually override LyricText.X-offset every time?
I've attached an image showing LilyPond's output (above), and the output from
another publisher that I'd like to emulate (below).
My code follows below.
Thanks!
