> not top posting I am transcribing Schubert's "Du bist die Ruh," and have run into a problem with the umlauts. In both the lyric and in the header, whenever I use an umlaut, the text stops. In the header, instead of saying Friedrich Rückert, it says Friedrich R, and in the lyric, instead of O füll es ganz, it says O f es ganz. \version "2.12.2" \header { title = "Du Bist Die Ruh" composer = "Franz Schubert" opus = "Op. 59, 3" poet = "Friedrich Rückert" } \include "english.ly" *********************** melody = \relative c'' { \clef treble \key bf \major \time 3/8 R1*3/8 R1*3/8 R1*3/8 R1*3/8 R1*3/8 R1*3/8 R1*3/8 f,8 f8. f16 g4 g8 bf4 a8 bf4. } *********************************** text = \lyricmode { Du bist die Ruh, O füll es ganz, } ******************************** upper = \relative c' { \clef treble \key bf \major \time 3/8 << {d16 f d f d f d g d g d g g c, g' c, f c bf'4.} \\ {bf,8 bf8. bf16 bf4. a f'16 bf, f' bf, ef bf} >> <f' bf f'>4. << {<f f'>4. <f f'>8 d16[ f d f]} \\ {bf8 a16 g a8 bf s s} >> d16 f d f d f d g d g d g << {bf4 a8 bf4.} \\ {d,16 f d f ef f d f d f d f} >> } ********************************** lower = \relative c { \clef bass \key bf \major \time 3/8 s4. s s g'4. << {ef'16 bf ef bf d bf c ef c ef c ef} \\ {f,4. f} >> <bf d>8 r r bf8 bf8. bf16 bf4. <d, bf'>4 <f c'>8 bf4. } ********************************* \score { << \new Voice = "mel" { \autoBeamOff \melody } \new Lyrics \lyricsto mel \text \new PianoStaff << \new Staff = "upper" \upper \new Staff = "lower" \lower >> >> \layout { \context { \RemoveEmptyStaffContext } } } _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
