It's good that you don't send long examples, but please send complete examples that people can try directly, without having to fill in a lot of empty slots.
I don't have the time to fill in notes in your example to try it myself, but one hint would be to expicitly specify the Staff contexts you want. Now, you specify Voice contexts and it's not obvious to me how these end up in the same or in different staves. Another hint is to learn to use the \lyricsto feature instead of \addlyrics. It offers much more flexibility. /Mats Quoting Ed Ardzinski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
First of all the details - v2.6.5 (I know it's "old") on Win XP Home... I am trying to create a "lead sheet" of sorts that has a lead vocal line, a backing vocal line, a bass line, and a rhythm context that shows the basic chord charges. So I have 5 variables: leadvox, backvox, harmonies (\chordmode), beat (\context RhythmicStaff), bline. After the definition of the notes and rhythms for leadvox and backvox I have \addlyrics blocks, so the code looks roughly like this: leadvox = {....} \addlyrics {la la la...} backvox = {...} \addlyrics {hey my my lordy be...} \harmonies = \chordmode {..chords/rhythms...} \beat = \context RhythmicStaff {...basically the same code as the \harmonies...} \bline = {...bass line - will be fairly developed as I've been basically a bassist for a few years...} and I put them together like this: %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \score { << \context Voice = one { \autoBeamOff \leadvox } \context Voice = two { \autoBeamOff \backvox } \context ChordNames { \set chordChanges = ##t %\set fontSize = #-1.5 \harmonies } \context Rhythm { \beat } \context Voice = three { \bline }\layout { } } %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Now, it seems, no matter how I do this the lyrics come out on the bottom, and while I haven't gotten to it yet, when the vocal parts overlap I'm going to have a problem I think... What I'd like to know how to do is add the lyrics to the specific variable and force those lyrics to render underneath the stave for that voice.
