Thank you so much for the responses! Trevor’s solution was successful (using
alignBelowContext).
I feel like I scoured the manuals for this, and saw nothing of using it for
this purpose — A.4.3 SATB with aligned contexts doesn’t really demonstrate why
you’d want to use that construct over the example in A.4.1.
I’ll gladly write an multi-voice example to add to the documentation, if it
doesn’t actually exist.
Thanks again!
