Thanks for this, by a remarkable coincidence I just fixed a relevant bug
in the lyrics code, so I think the problem may be gone (see below)
Testing your file I copied and pasted the 38 bars, doing the paste with
the cursor in the appending position on the top-most staff. That is with
the bug fixed, I haven't had a chance to test earlier versions.
edit->select->select all music in movement
edit->copy
place cursor at end, appending
edit->paste
Is this the wrong way? This is 2.0.19, on Linux, using the .deb files.
I just tested out doing this on 38 bars of a single staff and that seems
to work fine (in fact, repeatedly testing I got up to 301 bars).
If you have more than one staff in your selection you need to create
empty staffs to match the pasting you wish to do. In fact, testing this
I see that if there is only one staff to paste into then the Paste
operation can hang - it seems to depend on the number of bars. I've
submitted a bug report for that.
There are 3 staffs, lyrics on each. I didn't do anything to lengthen them
at the end of bar 38, just got the cursor there in append mode and pasted.
Does it matter which staff the cursor is in?
yes, the pasting seems to operate from the staff and cursor position
going to the right and down. So unless the cursor has enough staffs
below the one it is in a mess results. This is what I think it would be
good to fix before the 2.1 release
I'm not sure if you can use the build in Andreas's "daily" directory or
whether Andreas will have to crank out another one.
