Hello Fr Samuel,
It sounds like we are solving almost the same issue with note entry, and
Aaron Hill created a function which basically scales note values so that
they group together nicely. And the clutter from manual scaling is removed
entirely.
However, I am using fixed time (1/4). And to 'for

Where is the asterisk supposed to sit?

I honestly can’t understand what you’re trying to achieve… =\

I’m still working on getting my modified slur spacing issues worked out and
have yet to come up with a solution for the collision between \set stanza = "*"
and the words when a slur occurs on either side of the asterisk. (You’ll note

Hi,
I still have problems with collisions. Sometimes the stanza numbers
collide with the text before it. I´ve created a minimal example:
%% START
\version "2.10.33"
refrain = \lyricmode {
Test test test test.
}
verseOne = \lyricmode {
\set stanza = "1. "
Testi tes
Thanks for taking a look at this.
I thought about inserting invisible bar lines to allow more natural
breaking on long strings of lyric text. But for that to look right,
there would need to be a way to optionally re-print the reciting tone
at the beginning of the new line. I don't know if
Thanks for responding. Agreed, I did not follow your advice exactly
and in this email I have included a complete example.
I used the text \markup for two reasons. First, it would still be
nice to know the specific verse number and the verses don't always
start at "1." Second, I am trying
I'm wondering if you couldn't avoid this by adding bar lines to the
lyrics context and making them invisible. This _might_ make the lyrics
dodge them automatically (though I make no guarantees). In practice,
I've just left multiple syllable lyrics centered at the end of a
phrase (not the beginning
I think you misunderstood my reply. I didn't say that you
should use text \markup commands, but that you should
use Rehearsal marks, i.e. use the \mark command, just
as you already have done for the "REFRAIN" indication
in your original example.
Also, it's much easier to understand a question if
Mats:
I removed set stanza and used rehearsal marks instead. Here is an
example:
BEFORE:
allWords = \lyricmode
{
\set stanza = "1" \once \override LyricText #'self-alignment-X =
#LEFT \markup{\raise #2.0 \dynamic f The LORD is King; let the}
people tremble;*
\once \override
Why not use reheasal marks, see the section on "Rehearsal marks" for more
details. As you can see there, you can even get automatic numbering.
It might also be possible to make the stanza number allocate space so it
doesn't collide with the preceding lyrics, but I don't know how to do that.
