Hi,
It would be easier to look at an example I guess.
If you can scan it when you get home and send me a link, I'll have a
look!
Cheers,
Ralph

Ok, that fixes something I hadn't noticed yet :)
Maybe that will help with a question I was saving for after I got the
flags problem fixed.
I have some songs that alto, tenor or bass have some repeating in the
chorus.
like the song that Gordon Gilbert sent. in the chorus the soprono and
alto sing line a abd tenor and bass sing line b
hope fully this example comes thru - without word wrap ruining it.
if not, I can scan it so you can see what I mean when I get home.

Hi Tim,
OK I see the problems you are having with \partcombine and lyrics now.
AFAICS, \partcombine seems to mess with the parts to the extent that
there is no single Voice available that the lyrics can follow. The
example I tried shows that the documented "one" and "two" voices
only contain the notes that are separated (not chords) so you only
get lyrics beneath the separate notes.
Looking at a dump of the stream event output, there are voices
"one", "two", "shared", and "solo". I think the notes are directed
at different voices depending on whether they are separate or not,
so I suspect linking the lyrics to a voice is a non-starter for the
case of \partcombine. My suspicion is that \partcombine was never
intended to be used with lyrics, but I could be wrong.
There is an example in the Lilypond docs which show how to generate
lyrics independently of other voices and that might be the way to
go. See "7.3.5.4 Lyrics independent of notes"
OK, enough of that moaning, using the above method, here is what I
get which seems to work with the previous "fix" for part-combine.scm.
The method involves using the top-most voice and creating a "pseudo"
DevNull voice context which the lyrics can track. It exists but
there is no output.
You get a big pile of warnings which I think is a bug because you
get the warnings with the example in the doc also.
