Cross-voice lyrics

• Jan 28, 2017 - 16:24

There is some questionable typesetting in this score (from decades ago), but I do wonder if MuseScore is currently missing a feature - the ability to enter lyrics between different voices.

Try to continue the second verse of bar 3 into the next.

Using MuseScore 2.1 Nightly Build 75b66fd (mscz produced in it) - Mac 10.11.6.

(I'm unable to check 3.0 nightlies, though if a bug it could actually be the version it is addressed in.)

The first thing I noticed is that there are no voice 2 notes in the 4th measure. You must have a note to enter a lyric. I would enter the C and D in voice 2 and make all the notes and rests invisible. BTW, the current C in measure 4 should be sharp, but is natural. So I silenced the voice 1 C to avoid forcing a sharp sign on the note. oops, Voice 2 kept forcing the # symbol which it should have. Measure 4 C# is fine in voice 1.
