Hello everyone,I don’t know where the “Lyric syllable magnetic snap” snippet is mainly stored, I grabbed it from the list years ago and attach it in the version that I have, from December 2011 and with links to user list archive. I hope I’m not somehow behind time with this, having followed the user list only sporadically in the years since.
I have tracked down why I always got warnings about “infinity or nan” in every vocal music score I engraved: with the snippet, the last syllable of a LyricWord gets a #ly:text-interface::print stencil with #empty-markup as text, which results in multiple warnings each time Lily tries to apply whiteout to such a syllable. (tiny example below)
This is fixed by, in line 187 of the attached file, replacing ly:text-interface::print with point-stencil (an infinitely small stencil, IIUC). To avoid misunderstandings: the attached version does NOT have the fix applied.
I’m not aware of this snippet being available anywhere except the list archives. Surely it would be a good candidate for the LSR and OLL, wouldn’t it?
