Hi Lara,

PLEASE give us some source code. Then we can probably help you! It´s much easier for us if we do not have to create a sample for ourselves.

Thanks,

Dominic

Thanks everyone for the help with the skipping of text! It worked well with the "_" sign.
Remains my other question if one can get rid of the extra repeat bar just before the end. Lilypond is very firm: If you start with \partial 4 at the beginning of a song you should end with 3 notes instead of 4... and Ireally want 4 in the bar there.

Hi Dominic,

Thanks, this realy helps, one thing is not yet solves though: The text
in the verses do not tek notice of the "volta", so the text in verse
two runs through under volta 1. It should skip volta1 and go straight
to volta 2.
That's the way Lily works.  It may not be completely intuitive.  The
lyrics just go along straight following the notes ignoring any other
structural commands like \volta and \alternative.  You have to put skips
in your music to skip endings, etc. where you don't want lyrics.  I
usually do this with "_" (underscore).

An alternative is to use the method described in section "Divisi lyrics"
in the manual (don't stop at the first example, read the full subsection).
