\lyricsto not working with Devnull

2006-09-13 Thread Ted Walther 

I'm using the Devnull trick mentioned by Mats Bengtsson, referenced in
this post:

 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2006-06/msg00177.html

I am using lilypond version 2.9.17.

The lyrics should follow the soprano melody.  And they do, but I notice
that lyricsto isn't centering the words below the notes.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

Here is the resulting PDF:

And here is the score section:

%%
\score { 
 \new Staff 
   \global 
   \clef treble 
   \partcombine \soprano \alto

 
 \new Devnull = rhythm \soprano
 \new Lyrics \lyricsto rhythm \Words
 \new Staff 
   \global
   \clef bass
   \partcombine \tenor \bass
 
   
   \layout {
 \context { \GrandStaff \accepts Lyrics }
   }
}
%%

It's certainly the same problem that was mentioned in the email
you referenced earlier, namely that it doesn't set
associatedVoice to the printed voice (with the DevNull trick
the lyrics is associated with a voice that's never printed).
Unfortunately, the centering of the lyrics is done relative to
the associated voice as far as I know.

Is it possible to add the melody line with invisible notes and turn
off collision detection? I should think it would end up lining up
right.

The documentation for \partcombine says that there are two voices, named
one and two.  Why can't I \lyricsto one ?  I tried, but it didn't
work.  What are these mysterious one and two voices viz lyrics
context?
