Hy!

I have a little problem:

I have been inserting lyrics and I can not put two separated words under one note.
If I wish to cut word by syllables I insert -.
For example i have lyrics:

Bilo je v maju, ko sem ti prstan dal,....->Bi-lo je v ma-ju, ko sem ti pr-stan dal,...

Observing bold text (v maju); I would like to have this uder one note and to preserve space between.
What do I have to replace space with while typing text in edit lyrics window?

Thank you for possible reply.[/b]

Use Alt+0160 instead of space!

If you are running Finale under OS X the trick is (while typing lyrics into the score) option-space then space.

Probbably there is a numpad on your laptop, look if there are numbers on keys like 4 besides U, 5 besides I and so on. These are the numpad numbers, you can use them together with the Fn-Key.
