There is only the definition of leftbrace and rightbrace but these are not used in any place. So they don´t show up. I´ve tried to add \rightbrace after \dropLyrics which works quite good, but has one fundamental problem: The brace uses one note as a syllable would. Maybe someon else has a helping

Is it just me, or does the brace not show up? 2008/11/18 Marek Klein <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Maybe this snippet is what you are looking for: > > > -- > Marek Klein > http://gregoriana.sk > > > > 2008/11/18 Cordilow <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > > > Sometimes it'
