Skips in lyric mode

From LilyPond wiki
Revision as of 18:56, 16 November 2025 by Jean Abou Samra (talk | contribs) (Replace version="2.24.0" with version="2.24" now that the LilyWiki extension supports auto-selecting the latest release in a stable series)

The s syntax for skips is only available in note mode and chord mode. In other situations, for example, when entering lyrics, using the \skip command is recommended.

\version "2.24"

  \relative c'' { a1 | a }
  \new Lyrics \lyricmode { \skip 1 bla1 }
