There is an error in the example given on the following documentation page:

\override LyricText.self-alignment-X = #LEFT should read
\override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #LEFT

otherwise the following error occurs:

error: syntax error, unexpected '.', expecting SCM_FUNCTION or
SCM_IDENTIFIER or SCM_TOKEN
           \with { \override LyricText
                                      .self-alignment-X = #LEFT }

I presume the same error would occur with the font-shape definition above
this too, but I haven't tested this.

Thanks,

What version of LilyPond are you using here?

If you are using 2.19 then the example is different in that version's documentation (as far as I can tell).

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/opera-and-stage-musicals#dialogue-over-music


Any example in the documention where we show both the output AND the input that created that output, implies that the version of LilyPond that was used to create the example is the same as the documentation is for and used the same input.

I.e. the example you refer to was generated by LilyPond 2.18.2 for the 2.18 documentation. That's how we build the doc.

So I can only guess you are using a later version of LP than these documents were built from and that can only be if you are using 2.19.

I think.

Could you clarify this?
