Hello all,

i have been working on a small chorale arrangement project and I noticed that a syllable marked "xe- non" vs. "xe - - non" yields to different weights of hyphens.
These are completely different things. With "xe- non" the hyphen is considered the third character in a syllable and will be rendered as the hyphen character. "xe -- non" is the way to write syllable separators for lyrics. This will give you the control over the spacing, conditional repeat of the dash etc. But the output isn't a letter but a line (or even a rounded rectangle IIRC).

Also, I can not work out how to get the eighth notes to remain balanced. They all look like dotted rhythms without the dots. A note head offset of -1.5 corrects this, but how to shorten the beam also?
