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

"*Vo" will put the asterisk before the first Syllable.

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, } El mié., 20 de octubre de 2021 6:49 p. m., Kira Garvie escribió: > Hello all!

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!
