Hi, Appended is an excerpt from my current work where I'm seeing some strange behavior of extenders. All three voices use \melisma and \melismaEnd, so together with the __ extenders I expected the underlines in the lyrics to span measures 2-4 and 6-8 entirely in all three voices. However, what I'm seeing is:
- Voice 2 looks right, the underlines span measures 2-4 and 6-8 as expected - Voice 1 has shorter underlines stopping somewhere in measures 3 and 7 respectively - Voice 3 has very short underlines, ending immediately after the "M" syllables. There were some phrasing slurs there and other things, but I stripped them down since they didn't seem to be relevant to the problem. Any thoughts?
