Lyric line numbers on page 489

Changing the placement of lyric lines relative to the staff

You can change the staff-relative placement of whole lyric lines after they have been input.

PROCEDURE

1. In Write mode, select a lyric in each line whose staff-relative placement you want to

change.

NOTE

You can also make a selection and use the lyric lters to select different lyric lines

according to their line numbers, and to select lyric lines according to their position relative

to the staff.

2. Select the staff-relative placement you want in one of the following ways:

●

Choose Edit > Lyrics > Placement > Above.

●

Choose Edit > Lyrics > Placement > Below.

TIP

You can also choose these options from the context menu.

RESULT

The staff-relative placement of the whole lyric lines in which you selected lyrics is changed.

NOTE

If other lyric lines with the same lyric line number exist at the same position on the side of the

staff to which you want to change your current selection, the two lines switch sides. For example,

if there is already a Line 2 above the staff at the position where you want to change the

placement of Line 2 below the staff, then the existing Line 2 above the staff is placed below the

staff to accommodate your most recent preference.
