Re: Vertical alignment of Chords - Feature / Bug??? Subtle Solution

Hi all,
After looking through my draft lead sheets I saw this anomaly rearing
its head again.

TEMPORARY SOLUTION:
For the words in the preceding lyric line into which the Chord is
entering I surrounded the nearest preceding word above the chord in
quotes and added a space to the end of word so that it prevented the
chord below entering the lyric line. Not ideal but it works.

:-)

I'm sure there must be a better solution. Any suggestions?
Simon
