Not really. In general \addlyrics doen't work properly in more complex situations, at least far too often. \addlyrics is a short-cut, you pay for it with a lot of drawbacks. I'd avoid the use of it in all but the most simplest cases. > I boiled down the behaviour to an attached 10-line example: > Add another syllable to the lyrics (line 6) and watch the note in the > following measure disappear. > > Can somebody help me out here? > Thanks a lot in advance, > Phil How about the following (some comments inline): \version "2.18.2" << \new Staff { << \new Voice = "main" { R1 } \new CueVoice = "cue" { d'2 d'2 } >> %% let Voice named "main" continue \context Voice = "main" { d'4 e' f' g' } } %% sets lyrics on different level: %\new Lyrics \lyricsto "cue" { \set fontSize = #-3 A B } %\new Lyrics \lyricsto "main" { la le li lo } %% If you want the Lyrics on same line use: %\new Lyrics = "lyr" \lyricsto "cue" { \set fontSize = #-3 A B } %\context Lyrics = "lyr" \lyricsto "main" { \unset fontSize la le li lo } %% Or: \new Lyrics \lyricsto "cue" { \set fontSize = #-3 "A" \set associatedVoice = #"main" "B" \unset fontSize la le li lo } >> HTH, Harm _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
