Re: Using lyrics in a markup

[Jan-Peter Voigt]

Hello Marc, hello Jakob, hello list,

I just wanted to share a tiny extension of the lyrics->markup function:

...
            (cond
              ((eq? (ly:music-property lyrics 'name) 'LyricEvent)
               (ly:music-property lyrics 'text))
              ((eq? (ly:music-property lyrics 'name) 'HyphenEvent)
               (list "--"))
              ((eq? (ly:music-property lyrics 'name) 'LineBreakEvent)
               (list linebreakindicator))
;; to include stanza, copy the following three lines into the 
conditional of the function
              ((and (equal? (ly:music-property lyrics 'name) 'PropertySet)
                    (equal? (ly:music-property lyrics 'symbol) 'stanza))
               (markup #:bold (ly:music-property lyrics 'value)))
...

So if there are \set stanza statements, they will go into the markup.

Best regards,
Jan-Peter
