When selecting a track which contains Lyrics and
Paste Special - Lyrics it on a second track I get an error message, see attached immage. I could not find a workaround |
Re: Copy / Paste Lyrics Error
I did a test in the older 2.5.2 and found it has the same problem.

Re: Copy / Paste Lyrics Error
Hi Jaap,
Thanks for the report - this is now written up for fixing. The problem occurs with copy/pasting lyrics that don't have any notes associated with them. If you add notes to the top staff that has the lyrics, and then do the steps to copy/paste the lyrics, it will work. For example, in the file you have here: 1. In "add" mode, use the Notes/Notes and your mouse to add notes to the staff that contains the lyrics. 2. Then, use Ctrl + mouse drag to select those measures. 3. Ctrl + C to copy that region to the clipboard. 4. Now Ctrl + mouse drag to select the target measures. 5. Edit/Paste Special/Paste Lyrics, and now it works. Sorry for the inconvenience here, and thanks for reporting the bug. This can be an issue in karaoke files, which often have lyrics in a separate staff that does not contain notes. ttfn, Sherry |

Thanks Sherry
I tried your suggestion. It works fine I also tried the following procedure 1. Click the Staff Control to select the source staff with Lyrics to copy, 2. Cont+C to copy the staff 3. Select the target Staff with Staff Control button 4. Then Clicked Passed Special - Lyric. This does not produce the error message but the copy did not work. I found the workaround which also works Click menu: Part - prepare Fake book Lead Sheet, using the emty Lyrics track and the Melody track. Worked great and quick Cheers Jaap |
