What is the best way to put lyrics past the end of a staff, like this:
=======|.
A B C D E F
The words "A B C D" are placed with \lyricsto, but how is it possible
to put words at positions "E F"? When written in the lyrics, they are
simply ignored, even if the staff is not large enough to fill the
line-width.
It's probably simplest to use Lyrics with manual durations for such
things:
<<
\new Staff { c' d' e' d' \bar "|." }
\lyrics { A-4 ve Cae- sar, "morituri te salutant." }
>>
Hmmm... Somehow this works with your simple example, but not with
slightly more complex ones:
\score {
\new Staff <<
\new Voice { c' d' e' d' \bar "|." }
\lyrics { A-4 ve Cae- sar, "morituri te salutant." }
>>
}
continues the staff after the final "|." and places "morituri te salutant"
under it. And:
\score {
\new Staff <<
\new Voice = A { c' d' e' d' \bar "|." }
\new Lyrics \lyricsto A { A-4 ve Cae- sar, "morituri te salutant." }
>>
}
simply removes the "morituri te salutant."
Maybe it would make sense if "associated" lyrics would just continue
with the normal durations when losing their associated Voice rather than
committing suicide.
Indeed.
