Hi! I have a problem with lyrics in score.
There is a line in only two pages but i can't understand what is it (see attachment)
Have someone ever seen something like this? It's seems like a graphic error

Thank you!!

It looks like a word extension. If you don't really need them, you can turn them off -->Document -->Document Options -->Lyrics -->Word Extensions radio button -->Uncheck Use Smart Word Extensions -->OK -->Update -->OK.

If you do need them, see what word is being extended and either adjust the extension line (I believe you can do this in scroll screen mode as well) or delete it.

Word Extensions generally don't cross from page to page over page margins. It looks more like a guide line. You can get rid of those in the View menu.

If it *is* a Word Extension, it was probably the result of a Layer change on a previous page. Quickest fix is usually to adjust a Measure Attribute to block Word Extensions.

Word extensions only cover the length of the Staff. This has to be a guide line. I ran a test, and that is exactly what they look like. If Word Extensions ran past the staff, they would be useless, as they wouldn't follow the norm for extensions.

Thank you!
It was Word Extension problem

Yes, I have seen Word Extensions screw up like that before. They can be frustrating sometimes.
