I'm trying to typeset a piece for our choir (thus it's polyphony

Now, in one stanza I need to put a \breathe sign at a position,
where the
other stanzas mustn't have a breathe (so I can't attach it to the
staff
itself). This breathe should be inserted right in the lyrics of
that stanza,
but I haven't been able to do this.
My problem is that it seems as if \markup (as described in the
documentation:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.6/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/
Text-markup.html#Text-markup )
does not work for lyrics attached via \lyricsto, and \addlyrics
doesn't
handle polyphony (see the comment in section7.3.1)!
So how can I insert the breathe mark to the lyrics?
Hi Reinhold
What I have is only a hack way to get what you want, but you could
put it in the notes instead of in the lyrics, as follows:
\once \override BreathingSign #'Y-offset = #-12 \breathe
, modifying the number as necessary to match the height of your lyrics.
I haven't been able to find a way to adjust a breathing mark left and
right, only up and down.
Hope this helps
David
