Default Re: Lyrics for multiple verses fails in 3.0.1

David and Sherry

Thanks for your replies. I am grateful for your advice on a workaround, though reluctant to change what I have got used to! I would have to research how to deal with the frequent issue of some verses having a different number of syllables, meaning that sometimes there is an implied tie or slur so the syllable has to be spread over two notes - oh and how do I deal with slurs occuring in all verses?

For my use of the software, it is one of the very few weaknesses of Composer that the lyrics are treated as one single object, regardless of the number of verses, rather than each verse being a separate object. I guess this may be because Composer is rightly focused on the musical notation and the lyrics aspect is of lesser importance to most users.

I will struggle on with the workaround for the moment and look forward to the bug fix.

Regards
Tim
