Hello all!
Just wondering if there's a way to tell Lilypond (2.12 or later) to
set lyrics with natural *note* spacing, as opposed to natural *lyric*
spacing...
Here's a snippet showing what I'm hoping to achieve automagically:
\version "2.13"
melody = \relative
{
c8 d e f g4. f8 | e1
}
words = \lyricmode
{
On Thanks -- giv -- ing screeched we, “Eek!”
}
\score
{
\new Staff = "Staff_voice"
<<
\new Voice = "Voice_vocal" \melody
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "Voice_vocal" \words
>>
}
melodyHacked = \relative
{
c8-\tweak #'transparent ##t ( d e f) g4. f8 | e1
}
wordsHacked = \lyricmode
{
\once \override LyricText #'extra-offset = #'(-1 . 0) "On
Thanksgiving"2
\override LyricText #'self-alignment-X = #-0.7 screeched we,
\revert LyricText #'self-alignment-X “Eek!”
}
\score
{
\new Staff = "Staff_voice"
<<
\new Voice = "Voice_vocal" \melodyHacked
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "Voice_vocal" \wordsHacked
>>
}
Anyone see a (relatively simple) way to implement such an auto-
spacing/auto-adjusting feature?
If so, would it be Frog-able (i.e., without me learning C++)?
Thanks,
Kieren.
