Re: How to stop LyricExtender-lines?

[Dominic Neumann]

Hi,

I have to reanimate this topic. I still haven´t found a satisfactory
solution for a snippet like the following. I the output you can see
that there is too much space between the 2nd and 3rd system. If I
remove the __ from verse 2 and 3, the extra space isn´t there anymore,
but that´s not what I want.

Can you help me?

Dominic


%%%%% START %%%%%
\version "2.10.33"


verseOne = \lyricmode {
    \set stanza = "1. "
    Macht. __
}

verseTwo = \lyricmode {
    \set stanza = "2. "
    Mut. __  ""
}

verseThree = \lyricmode {
    \set stanza = "3. "
    Kraft. __ ""
}

refrain = \lyricmode {
    \set stanza = "Refr. "
    So wie
}


\score {
    {
        <<
        \relative c'' {
            \key g \major

        }
        \addlyrics { \verseOne \refrain }
        \addlyrics { \verseTwo }
        \addlyrics { \verseThree }

Ok, this works good and is easy to add. When compiling I get the error
or warning:
"Programmierfehler: can't align on self: empty element"
But it works as expected.
