Notes en lyrics left justified
When I compile the code below, I get a staff over the entire width of my page
(see example 1), but the notes f and a, including the lyrics 'OK' and 'thanks'
are in the middle of the staff.
How can I make sure that the lyrics and notes on the left are justified? (see
example 2)
\version "2.22.1"
\layout {
indent = #0
line-width = #180
#(layout-set-staff-size 24)
}
{
\key f \major \time 2/4
c'4 f' \bar "" \break
c' a' \bar "" \break
}
\addlyrics {
Yes OK,
No thanks,
}
Example 1.Wrong outlined
Example 2. This is what I want.

Re: Orthodox Chant
Yes, you can use \cadenzaOn to disable automatic bar lines engraving.
See the example:
```
\version "2.24.2"
\include "english.ly"
\relative c' {
\cadenzaOn \autoBeamOff \omit Staff.TimeSignature
\key f \major f4 f g2(a) f4 f f g a bf2 \bar"" a4 a \bar"" g2 f
\bar"|."
} \addlyrics {
When the stone __ had been sealed by the Jews,
\once \override LyricText.self-alignment-X = #LEFT
while_the_soldiers_were_guarding_Thy_most
\once \override LyricText.self-alignment-X = #CENTER
pure Bod -- y.
}
```

Thank you very much for this: food for further study there. I think
what would look better was if the top staff had the tail above and the
bottom staff the tail below - so it would look a bit like a brace. I'll
try to study the docs under \defineBarLine to see if this can be done.

Note name cue for high-pitched notes
Hi everybody ! In Behind Bars, Elaine Gould advises to indicate note names for occasional high-pitched notes (i.e. more than 5 ledger lines, p.325 I think, in keyboards section), in a small box aside note heads. Is there any standard way to do so ? Else I guess a properly tweaked markup may do the job ? Cheers, Yann
Re: Notes en lyrics left justified
Hello Ad,
what you want is
\paper {
ragged-right = ##t
}
the issue with this is that it will shorten the staff. So use
\layout {
\context {
\Staff \override StaffSymbol.width =
#(lambda (grob)
(ly:output-def-lookup (ly:grob-layout grob) 'line-width))
}
}
to enforce the staff having full length.
Cheers,
Valentin
