Dear list In the last two hours or so I've been reading up 800 unread mails, searched the archive and the LSR. But I still have to bother you with this. :/
I'm trying to reproduce two songs which both make an unusually big use of extenders. Both are SATB choir pieces. One has only one of the voices singing, and the others accompany with hm __. In order to show that this humming is continuous, it has lots of extenders all the way through, see the attachment extender-mm.png for an example. The other song does that too, albeit not so much in the face, see parallel-extender.png. Of course I could always go with the modern style and omit the extender for the whole note in this particular case, but I'd still fancy reproducing the original, since the song is early renaissance. Lastly, also found in the second one of those songs, I have an extender that enters the alternatives of a volta repeat (alternative-extender.png). During my catching up with the ML I already learned how to create ties in and out of alternatives, but I couldn't find out anything about extenders. The only thing I came up with so far is to switch the associated voice and use invisible notes to artificially stretch the lines. But this would be rather tedious, as - the song uses it over the whole length, - at some point in three voices at the same time, each at different ticks - and I would have to deal with countless note clashes, which is a horror if you want a clean compile :) May I ask for a little nudge here? Even a "no can do", so I can ease up a bit. -- Gruß | Greetings | Qapla' I forbid any use of my email addresses with Facebook services. Two antennae got married.
