line breaks within lyrics
Hi everyone,
I'm writing a piece where the rhythms of the sung words are free, so a whole
phrase is attached to a single note. I'm putting my lyrics in for each
note, but they appear on one long line, when I actually want them wrapped to
the width of the bar

Hi Andrew,
or to set the max width and tell lilypond to wrap the text?
In markup, I used
^\markup \override #'(line-width . 62) \column { \wordwrap-lines { Lorem
ipso dolor yadda yadda … } }
I'm assuming you could do the same with LyricText
