Re: Explicit durations in Lyrics behaving strangely
Quoting Peter Chubb lily.u...@chubb.wattle.id.au: Hi, I'm trying to use the Adeste Fideles tune from Mutopia http://www.mutopiaproject.org/cgibin/piece-info.cgi?id=367 I ran convert-ly on it. It uses explicit durations on the lyrics. I see many warnings: adeste.ly:94:18: warning: Lyric syllable does not have note. Use \lyricsto or associatedVoice. A4 -- des2 -- te,4 fi -- del2 -- es, The output looks OK. Why does Lily care about associated voice, if all lyrics have explicit durations? There have been several related discussions on the mailing list. If you compare the output to what you get if you indeed set associatedVoice or use \lyricsto, is that the horizontal alignment differs. When LilyPond knows what voice the lyrics is associated with, it uses that information to align the lyrics properly. /Mats -- Dr Peter Chubb http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au peterc AT gelato.unsw.edu.au http://www.ertos.nicta.com.au ERTOS within National ICT Australia A university is a non-profit organisation only in the sense that it spends everything it gets ...

Re: Explicit durations in Lyrics behaving strangely
You could end up with misplaced lyrics that you don't notice until later. You can probably just add \lyricsto verbaone (verbatwo, verbathree) between the \new Lyrics and \verbaone Am 15.12.2008 um 11:05 schrieb Peter Chubb: Hi, I'm trying to use the Adeste Fideles tune from Mutopia http://www.mutopiaproject.org/cgibin/piece-info.cgi?id=367 I ran convert-ly on it.
