To shift lyrics to the right or left

If you failed to anticipate the melisma (by typing Alt+0160 characters, as described above) when entering the lyrics in the Lyrics window, you can adjust misaligned lyrics by using the Shift Lyrics command. For full instructions, see Lyrics—To correct misaligned lyrics.

Note: To analyze the score and slur melismas appropriately, use the Auto Slur Melismas plug-in.
