Re: Problem with ragged-last and verse numbers

[Jan-Peter Voigt]

Hello once again,

I forgot to mention to add an empty \markup in the last verse. Otherwise the amen-extender will not look nice and complain while compile.
And I misunderstood your stanza question first. I saw Wilbert answered that this minute. I copied "\set stanza" in every line, so every verse-line starts with a number.

Regards,
Jan-Peter
