And since we're talking about temporary polyphonic contexts (TPC) there are
a few other things, like lyrics, that don't work in to and out of them.
Mostly multi-note events like slurs, crescendos, etc. You cannot start them
outside a TPC and conclude them inside one, or start them inside a TPC and
conclude them outside one. If you need to use them, extend the measures in
your TPC. This will produce stems/beams you may dislike but judicious use
of "s" can fix that. Well, that's the only way I know how to use them. More
experienced folks on this list may use other methods.
