Here's one alternative method, which might suit you better, but it's even more hacky. Note the space in " ".
\version "2.19.49" % \version "2.11.65" music = \relative c' \new Voice = "music" { \repeat volta 2 { c4 c c c ~ } \alternative {{ c2 c }{ \once \hideNotes c2*1/4~ c2*3/4 a4( c) }} \bar "|." } words = \lyricmode { Da da da dah __ da \markup { " " } __ dum. } << \music \new Lyrics \lyricsto "music" \words >> Trevor ----- Original Message ----- From: Risto Vääräniemi To: Lilypond user Sent: Saturday, December 31, 2016 11:36 AM Subject: LyricExtender and alternate volta ending Hi all, I'm porting a project I made on 2.11 to 2.19 and every now and then I encounter some things that worked with the old version but not anymore with the new one. The most recent one is the behaviour of the LyricExtender in the alternate endings. In 2.11 you could fool the system to add the an empty extender by adding \markup { "" } in the lyrics but that does not work anymore with 2.19. The current manual *) suggests adding underscores manually but that is an ugly workaround especially if the passage in the alternative ending is long (as I have in the real world example). Is there any way to do this more dynamically? -Risto *) http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/techniques-specific-to-lyrics ----- \version "2.19.49" % \version "2.11.65" music = \relative c' \new Voice = "music" { \repeat volta 2 { c4 c c c ~ } \alternative {{ c2 c }{ c2\repeatTie a4( c) }} \bar "|." } words = \lyricmode { Da da da dah __ da \markup { "" } __ dum. } << \music \new Lyrics \lyricsto "music" \words >> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
