Hello Lilypond-Users,
I know this is discussed often. So I have some examples how I tried it.
I am typesetting a few choral pieces (using the stable version 2.12.2
Ubuntu repo), where there is often a sign, that singers should close
from vowel to 'N'.
This is written: a - - - men ____ (n) ____
The choir should do this in designated times/positions, so it should be
written in the score.
I prefer the solution with a Voice wich hides everything (example C). I
have to take care to tag out all note-associated text and it leads to a
lot of compile warnings. (german: "zu viele kollidierende Notenspalten
werden ignoriert" colliding notes? But so what, it leads to the right
placement of the '(n)'.
What do you think about it? Are there other solutions I didn't find
googling my lilypond?
Regards,
Jan-Peter.
