Utilities/Rebeam/Rebeam to Lyrics

Beaming to lyrics is a convention used in opera or art song notation. In this scheme, eighth, sixteenth, and shorter notes are never beamed together in the vocal line except when a syllable is sustained through more than one note (melisma). Choose Rebeam to Lyrics to display the Rebeam to Lyrics dialog box, in which you can specify the lyrics you want rebeamed in this way.

For detailed information, see the Rebeam to Lyrics dialog box.
