Hi
1/ lyric written above an below staves

at the moment the song text (lyrics) can only be written below staves: I had a problem with this when entering ' voices on a "piano staves" (so on 2 staves) and then wanting to add the soprano and tenor voices above the stave:

I suggest to add a new formatting property on the voice texts (similar to "hampes des notes") :
The text song could be by default as it is now below the stave and anchored to the "soprano voice" by default

When selecting a voice and all the lyrics from this voice on either the same stave or on the full score, we could be able to set then the text above the stave, and then also select the distance from the stave: This should be done on the active election (all the selected lyrics elements)

I have added an example of the troubles I have run into doing this now: (see page 2 under mark B)

2:/ Also at the moment it is not possible to align several pieces of lyrics (again on this music pieces) after moving it (I had moved one by one the elements): Then again by selecting several lyrics pieces it should be offered to align them either by the top, middle, or bottom.

Thank a lot
M GOUDE
