Uh, no that didn't do what I needed.
I should have deleted the words above the staff to make the example clearer.
The words below the staff are all lyrics to be sung when under notes and spoken
when under either hand claps or rests so they need to be attached to their
respective events.
By the way why does the defining of crosses on and off work? And where is that
'shortcut' in the manual? I'm not sure for my purposes that I would use the
mua|b thing as those are essentially one time insertions.
Thanks
Jay

Hi Jay,

I'm not sure exactly what you want (especially, for example, with the
bold markup "In Position..." -- is that supposed to be a subtitle?)...
Regardless, I took a stab at clearing up your code a bit -- maybe my
edits will give you a shove in the right direction.
Hope this helps!
Kieren.
