Melismata are indicated with a horizontal line centered between a syllable and the next one. Such a line is called an extender line, and it is entered as ‘ __ ’ (note the spaces before and after the two underscore characters).
Centered hyphens are entered as ‘ -- ’ between syllables of a same word (note the spaces before and after the two hyphen characters). The hyphen will be centered between the syllables, and its length will be adjusted depending on the space between the syllables.
In tighly engraved music, hyphens can be removed. Whether this
happens can be controlled with the minimum-distance
(minimum
distance between two syllables) and the minimum-length
(threshold below which hyphens are removed).
