OK, this might seem stupid but I'll ask anyway. I know to hit enter after the first set of lyrics, but what if the notes on the moving parts are different every time? This is not your conventional hymn. Thanks.

Sarah,

sure, it's relatively easy for the verse 1 lyrics, not so easy for others.

Verse 1 lyrics: Use the Double Ctrl-F3 find to look for lyrics. It will find
the first word and then you can just press
F3, hear the note, and also the lyric.


Others are not so easy.

Verse 2: First select all with Ctrl-A. Then Ctrl-f to open the find dialog.
tab through the various items to select text items and be sure to only
select the lyrics verse two text type. Then press Alt-F to find the first.
for this you'll need to press Enter to hear the first lyric and Esc to
close. Then F3 will find each subsequent verse 2 lyric and sound the note,
just as in verse 1.


I didn't try verses 3 and 4 but they may work the same. However if you're
doing a standard SATB then the other verses 3 and 4 will be the same as
verse 1 and 2 but on the next staff below.

Have fun.

dave

Hello. Is the an easy way to write lyrics? I have to write 4 verses of
angels we have heard on high for SSAA and each verse has different notes. I
have to get this done before we actually sing this. and also is there an
easier way of checking the lyrics. I have Ben tabbing through the score to
check that they are there, but I don't want to hit enter just to see what
it is and hit escape. Thanks all.
