Christian, I did so and at the first glance it works as it should but in some places a shift of the lyric line over several bars occurs. After returning to 12 voices without the stave for the b.c these shifts disappear only if musixuad is not included. But without the 13. stave for the b.c. there is another problem : The last lyric line is partly positioned into the last stave. A Space ... in the preamble has no effect because the last stave is the end of the page. So I am a little frustated using M-Tx in this project.
