Hello everybody,
in full scores, choir parts are often typeset with span bars and
traditionally, lyric syllables often cross those spanbars with whiteout.
LilyPond, however, distorts spacing to place the span bar after the
syllable, and I can’t think of an override to change that. The second
example shows using a markup with null dimensions, which isn’t the right
solution for several reasons but in this case shows what I aim for
(except I didn’t add whiteout and the lyric extender is obviously wrong).
Is there a better solution?
Best, Simon
