G'day all I am in need of some of your cyber cleverness again.
I have a note which is tied from the last beat of bar 1 to the first beat of bar 2. Its lyric needs to span the bar line and be sung to one syllable. I cannot convince MTx that this is a good thing. The usual "----" that is used to indicate a syllable spanning multiple beats does not appear, the next words starts a beat early and the ?? of course appears at the end. Here is a code fragment to show what i mean Style: Singer Meter: 4/4 d4 d8 d d d ( d4 L: dum dum de dah de span d8 ) e8 e e e2 L: do do do dooooo so the 'span' word is the tied one. The first 'do' of bar 2 should be the second beat. The best I have managed to do is poke in a blank lyric in the first beat of the second bar so that the lyrics line up but then of course the singer will be confused about the tie not showing in the lyric. Hope i have been clear. thanks for any clever ideas cheers Neil _______________________________________________ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sunsite.dk/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
