Phrasing with lyrics 2016-03-16 06:20 pm Is there a user tool or plugin that would allow phrasing that would ignore already assigned note properties. Using the slur tool for phrasing instrumental comps is fine but having to use the slur tool and then going back to assign individual note or noting groupings properties "always/never" is a real pain and unduly laborious in my opinion.

Re: Phrasing with lyrics Reply #1 – 2016-03-16 07:14 pm Try this: https://forum.noteworthycomposer.com/?topic=9120.0. Mike also has another version called "slurcubic" that draws flatter slurs. Either one will make good phrase marks. You do have to be working in NWC 2.75. Quote Selected 1 Likes

Re: Phrasing with lyrics Reply #4 – 2016-03-17 05:30 pm I just started using Slur.ms created by Mike Shawaluk. I must say that I like the functionality of this plugin. I am however having a problem when I try to print my project. When a staff carries over to the next line on the printed page, the slur ends abruptly at the end of the line instead of carrying over to the next line. This doesn't happen when I use the NWC ; slur. Am I using slur.ms wrong or improperly or have I missed a setting somewhere? I've tried a few different things but without success. Quote Selected

However, I just noticed that you already gave that post a "like", so you probably know this change is in the works. For now, you will need to put in two slurs, one before & after the staff break.Thanks for the positive comments Mike Quote Selected 1 Likes
