Forcing Lyrics 2002-06-01 10:48 pm I came across an old hymn that I want to redo. The problem is this: Say on verse 1, a lyric syllable is a quarter note, but on verse 2, in place of that is 2 lyric syllables sung as 2 eigth notes. Is there a way, to force a lyric on the second note of a tie? Quote Selected
Re: Forcing Lyrics Reply #1 – 2002-06-01 11:26 pm You can select any note and edit it, then use the Lyric Syllable pulldown to select default behavior, or association with a lyric "never" or "always."HTH Quote Selected

Re: Forcing Lyrics Reply #4 – 2002-06-04 06:39 pm One other thing:In the Scriptorium, I placed a helpful font file called "NWslurs." It contains, among other things, a selection of slurs/ties that can be used as text items (that is, they have no effect on playback).You can use a solid or dashed tie for those split notes. My choir frequently has to sing bilingual hmns, where the number of syllables per language is very different. A dashed tie is often used to indicate that the notes are tied for some verses, separated for others. Quote Selected
