does anyone know how to make the LyricExtender ignore/skip one or more syllables? I.e. the extender line should *not* stop at the next syllable:
For the above picture, I've used a workaround:
% -------------------------------------------------------
\version "2.18.2"
\relative c' {c2 d e f g a}
\addlyrics { a b _ c d e }
\addlyrics {
\override LyricExtender.extra-offset = #'(0 . 2.8)
_ \markup{ \transparent ". "} __ _ _ _ }
% -------------------------------------------------------
As you can see, the extender lines are produced by a second stanza, which can be pretty annoying.
It would be great to have something like
\addlyrics { a b \extend #3 _ c d e }
Does anyone know some Scheme magic to achieve this?
Cheers,
Klaus
P.S.: This would be helpful for Functional harmony stuff... see attachment.
