Revealing hidden lyrics

[Sherry C]

Hi,

I was not able to unhide the lyrics for that particular staff either. Perhaps there was some editing step that removed them? You can check the autosave backup copies of your file to see if the lyrics are present in one of those. Just use "File/Autosave recovery" to see a list of back up files. Find the filename-1.not version of your file for the most recently saved (there should be at least 5 iterations unless you've made changes to the Autosave settings.)

Hope that helps!

Hi Sherry,

no, the autosave files didn't help, but I think I've found another way to solve this problem: I've added a new staff and copied the Alt 1 staves and *bling*, the hidden lyrics are shown again

I don't know if we should call it a miracle or just a software bug

Hi snoops,

Great work. - You said:

“I don't know if we should call it a miracle or just a software bug.”

I think, some software companies prefer to see a bug as a miracle, though not this one.


Best wishes,
