The number after \skip has to be there for consistency, but in lyrics that number is a mere place-holder. You have to put another \skip (+number) for every skipped note in the lyrics. In the usual practical situation, where the lyrics are for a singer, it doesn't make common sense to have entire bars (or even entire beats) that both have notes *and* don't have lyrics. -- David _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
