Hello Mogens,
AFAIK quoted lyrics has to be done "manually" right now.
In those cases, I usually create a CueVoice="mycue" and quote the needed
music in there. Then I can create Lyrics (with a smaller font) that is
assigned to that voice with \lyricsto "mycue".
Those cases are not too often, so I can live with "rewriting" the needed
quoted lyrics.
The problem is, that you can get the corresponding notes from the lyrics
quite easy, but I don't know of a way in the other direction: getting
corresponding syllables from a voice-context.
Well, one could probably search a Lyrics context for syllables assigned
to notes to be quoted ...
I am sorry to say, that I think, you have to copyandpaste the needed
lyrics right now.
Cheers, Jan-Peter

Hi,
Is there a mechanism for lyrics similar to \quoteDuring? I naively tried
\version "2.16.0"
soprano = \relative c'' { a2 b4 c d e f g }
alto = \relative c' { e4 f2 g4 a b c d }
sopranoText = \lyricmode { one two three four five six seven eight }
altoText = \lyricmode { en to tre fire fem seks syv otte }
\addQuote "qsoprano" { \soprano }
\addQuote "qalto" { \alto }
mixture = {
\quoteDuring "qsoprano" { s1 }
\quoteDuring "qalto" { s1 }
}
\addQuote "tsoprano" { \sopranoText }
\addQuote "talto" { \altoText }
mixText = {
\quoteDuring "tsoprano" { s1 }
\quoteDuring "talto" { s1 }
}
\score { <<
\new Staff {
\new Voice = "soprano" { \soprano }
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "soprano" { \sopranoText }
\new Staff {
\new Voice = "alto" { \alto }
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "alto" { \altoText }
\new Staff {
\new Voice = "mix" { \mixture }
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "mix" { \mixText }
}
If the magic had gone my way, the bottom lyrics had read
one two three fire fem seks syv
I attach a scan of what I got instead.
My motivation is that I have a piece for six (human) voices all typed
and ready but now need to rearrange it for five voices. I have
successfully made extensive use of \quoteDuring for the notes. The
lyrics consist of fa -- la -- lah's and ting -- e -- lings rather than
real words, so they need to follow the part they came from, so a
\quoteDuring mechanism would save me a lot of error prone copy-and-paste.
Regards,
Mogens
