When transcribing opera, particularly in Italian it is often necessary to apply two syllables, belonging to different words, to one note; e.g. "quegli occhi a me" split on 4 notes thus: (que-)(gli oc-)(chi a)(me). I tried a non-breaking space between "gli" and "och", and "chi" and "a", but NWC doesn't seem to recognise it as non-breaking. Any ideas?
Thanks

Yes. Use the underscore. It is described somewhere - I forget where. But hey, this works; lots of success with it!

Ah, I knew about underscores, and I'm sure I tried it originally and it didn't work; but I tried it again and it does - ah well. Thank you.

the underscore used "like_that" joins syllables(words); but "that _ way" it adds a no-syllable note. :)
BTW, that's what we can use for numbering verses:
1_:_First ly-rics
2_:_Se-cond ly-rics
and so on.
(in French compound signs (: ; ! ?) must be preceded by a non-breaking space)
