Thanks for this, Trevor; it's easier to see what's going on than using \displayMusic. I noticed something strange going on when using \addlyrics; perhaps it should be documented as a `known issue'. Consider the following snippet: verseOne = \lyricmode { Joy to the world the Lord is come } \score { << \new Voice = "one" \relative c'' { \autoBeamOff \time 2/4 c4 b8. a16 g4. f8 e4 d c2 } \addlyrics { \verseOne } \new Lyrics \lyricsto "one" \verseOne >> } You'd guess that this would produce a stave with two sets of lyrics, but what actually happens is that \addlyrics renames the voice context to `uniqueContext0', which means the \new Lyrics block can't find anything to attach itself to. I presume this is a known bug, since the helper function used by \addlyrics to retrieve the context id has a TODO saying `It seems that this function rarely returns anything useful.' :) Regards, Neil _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
