One of my songs has four verses of text for most of the song, but for the last part there's only one line of text. My problem is that the LyricExtenders are sticking way too far out at the end of the three verses that do not keep going. This looks similar to issue 331 but as far as I can tell there was no resolution to the problem:

Can anyone tell me how to make the Lyric extenders stop at the right place?

Minimal example code and image attached.  Thanks,

Jon

Incidentally I see that one of the regression tests produces the same error message that I get when I'm running my complete file:

"warning: programming error: Spanner `LyricExtender' is not fully contained in parent spanner. Ignoring orphaned part"

I guess the question is how to contain the LyricExtender in a parent without adding more lyrics after it.


here's the code from file "spanner-break-beyond-parent.ly"

\header { texidoc = "Spanners parts that extend beyond their parents
  are killed in case of line breaks."

  }

\version "2.11.51"

\paper { ragged-bottom = ##t }

\new Staff {
  c1 \break c1
}
\addlyrics {  welt __ }
