Re: [Finale] Force lyrics all same size on reduced notes

Many of you suggested to use "Fixed Size" fonts. But when I use fixed size in lyrics, I always have the problem that the lyrics are not taken into account for music spacing which makes them rather unusable (no matter what I select in the Document Options->Music Spacing->Avoid Collision

Re: [Finale] Force lyrics all same size on reduced notes

You can just increase the size of the reduced lyrics and none other. This is done in the Lyric Window. If you are using Times New Roman 12, and get a 75% reduction with a grace note or cue, you want to embiggen it by 33% or a third. That would be 16 points, just for that syllable, and it

That's definitely an option, Christoph. Although it might be a bit confusing if you're dealing with different font sizes in the Lyrics Window. I was looking for a global option, but that probably doesn't exist. Am 24.09.2015 um 22:58 schrieb Christopher Smith: > You can just increase the size

I was looking for the Text Font changing options in the Lyrics Menu, but they are in the Text Menu. Not exactly intuitive, but it's the same everywhere else in Finale. I just don't use the Lyrics Tool that much. On Wed, Sep 23, 2015 at 9:30 AM, Barbara Touburg wrote: > On

Re: [Finale] Force lyrics all same size on reduced notes

I also have this problem with lyrics cue notes where the lyrics sometimes appears too small to read. The best solution I found was using two layers for this: 1.) one layer with the reduced cue notes (for example Layer 3) 2.) second layer with "Blank notation" staff style applied with the cue

Re: [Finale] Force lyrics all same size on reduced notes

Hello Robert, You could try this: When there is another syllable for a cue-sized note, back up to the main note, enter its syllable, then enter a "hard space" (Option-Space on Mac), then enter the next syllable. You might have to do some manual adjusting, but I think it might work. Hal Owen

Re: [Finale] Force lyrics all same size on reduced notes

If you reduce the noteheads versus reduce the note, the fonts won't change size. On Sep 23, 2015, at 9:12 AM, Robert Patterson wrote: > I am working on a hymn excerpt, and some of the verses have extra syllables > which are denoted by reduced notes. The problem I
