continue lyric lines for grace notes

• Apr 23, 2025 - 17:33

would love the ability to set whether the lyric line here continues as though the grace note is a "real note" (clumsy note?); honestly, toggling the ability to treat grace notes like "real notes" in general would be pretty sick. Screenshot 2025-04-23 at 12.31.06 PM.png

It looks like that grace note is simply used to avoid overfilling the measure. Why not change the dotted half to a half tied to a eighth, and followed by the eighth note E?

not a bad choice, just not quite the "vibe" of the grace note here, if that makes sense. If _ were to change this at all, I'd probably just add a 'fall' to the end of the F and remove the E entirely— the point of the grace note isn't to minimize clutter, but to imply that its a little passing embellishment moreso than an integral part of the melody. The voice line here is a transcription that I tried to make as accurate to the original recording as possible (for the fun of the exercise, mostly haha).
