A question on the following MWE:

\new Lyrics {

I expected the notes to be labeled "a [gap] c [gap] [gap] [gap] [gap]"
on the first line and "a b c d [gap] [gap] [gap]" on the second. But
the actual output is "a [gap] [gap] c [gap] [gap] [gap]" and "a b c
[gap] d [gap] [gap]".
Is there an error in the MWE, or is this a bug?
Well, I can’t quite describe the internal proceedings that lead to this
indeed unexpected result. But your input code is very odd for a start,
and the following standard way works as expected:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.18.2"
\score {
<<
\new Voice = "melody" {
\time 3/4
c'4 c'4 c'4 | c'4 c'4 c'4 | c'2. |
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "melody" {
a \skip 1 c
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "melody" {
a b c d
}
>>
}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
You’d have to give us more context on why you chose this particular
nesting of expressions.
Best, Simon
