2016-09-14 8:39 GMT+02:00 James Evensen <address@hidden <mailto:address@hidden>>: Can I put a tie between words in lyrics? In choral music, I've noticed that the composer will sometimes use this notation to indicate that the singer is not to breathe in-between two particular words. I've looked around, but the only examples I've seen of ties used in Lilypond are between notes.IIUC you meant two words on two notes without a breath inbetween, right?Correct. Attached is what must be one of the most eyeballed instances. My workaround is: high~ in or even: high~ ~in if there's a line break involved. But a real, breakable one would be great.
It would be great to have Tie_engraver work in lyrics, but then we’d have to think about a working input syntax. I figure that would likely involve something like \lyricmode { high \tie in heaven }. But it’s no more than a feature request.
Best, Simon
