Lyricist not showing when added to Score properties.
I am doing a chart for a client.
I made a new score adding the client as the composer.
I then went to score properties to add the copyright info.
While there, I noticed I had not added the lyricist. I added that info into Score Properties, but it si not showing in the score.
Regards,

(It is not updated, however)

Thank you.
See https://musescore.org/en/handbook/score-properties#default-tags: lyricist: As entered in the New Score Wizard (which is also used to fill the corresponding lyricist text in the top vertical frame—be aware that later changes to one are not reflected in the other).

That is my issue. Why is it not updated?

Because there is no link between the 2 entries. Nor for any other entries in Score Properties and title frame, like composer or Title.
And for good reason: you can have more that one frame, more than one composer/lyricist/title in a score, bot only one in score properties

I'd call that at best a "sort of" good reason :-). We already special-case that first frame in a number of other ways, wouldn't really hurt to do so here as well. Or at least to add the option of using metadata variables in ordinary text like we do in headers and footers. Not an unsolvable problem, just one someone would need to think through, design, and implement.

Thanks.

The ability to use metadata variables outside of header and footer should be the way to go IMHO.
