Re: Asterisk before first syllable of verse
Yes, that works, thank you! I thought I had tried that option, but
apparently not... silly me!

Re: Asterisk before first syllable of verse
"*Vo" will put the asterisk before the first Syllable.

Subject: Asterisk before first syllable of verse
Hello all! I need there to be an asterisk before the first syllable of this
verse, but I can't figure out how to make it work with also keeping the
hyphenation of the word, and not bumping all the lyrics over one syllable...
also, I dont use the \addLyrics command because the text and the music are
actually saved as separate files and the command to combine them is elsewhere.
StanzaSix = \lyricmode {
\set stanza = "2."
\set language = "es"
\override StanzaNumber #'font-shape = #'italic
\override LyricText #'font-shape = #'italic
Vo -- so -- tros hi -- jos de~Is -- ra -- el,
Thank you!
Re: Asterisk before first syllable of verse
Does this help?
You'll need also to adjust to match your preference for that syllable
\once \override LyricText.self-alignment-X = #LEFT
StanzaSix = \lyricmode {
\set stanza = "2."
\set language = "es"
\override StanzaNumber #'font-shape = #'italic
\override LyricText #'font-shape = #'italic
\markup \concat {* \hspace #0.5 Vo} -- so -- tros hi -- jos de~Is -- ra --
el,
}
