I'm currently fighting with adding cue notes from vocal voices. In particular, in instrumental scores of a large choir piece, the cue notes are typically taken from soprano, so I need to add lyrics to the cue notes (idea taken from http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=347).
Unfortunately, the documentation about cue notes is not very good, and there
are hardly any useful snippets or regression tests for cue notes with lyrics.
Attached is a stripped-down example of the issues that I'm encountering in my
attempts and that I need to solve (I'm creating the orchestra material for a
concert in two weeks...).
In particular, the problems are:
-) The lyrics of the first cue notes start only on the second note!
-) The second cues don't have any lyrics any more.
-) How can I use the lyrics from the same position as the cue notes?
I.e. 'E F G H' and 'O P Q R S T' in the example
-) I want a "Sop." markup with the cue notes.
-) Cue lyrics should be on the same line (but smaller) than the main lyrics
-) When using \killCues (e.g. in the full score or in the vocal score), I want
one multi-measure rest going over the whole rest interval.
-) Starting cue notes in mid-measure collides with my need for full-measure
reast when \killCues is used. The example produces what I want, but
barfs with a warning about wrong measure length.
-) Cue notes in other clefs should display their original clef and before the
real notes reset the clef, see e.g.
http://www.mu-sig.de/Theorie/Notation/Notation03.htm#n8
for an example without lyrics.
Does anyone have an idea how to overcome these issues?
Thanks a lot,
Reinhold
