Default Re: Enter Underlined Text Characters

Hi,

There is currently no specific underline font option - I'll add that to the "to do" list, though.

As a workaround that may be acceptable, you can do the following:

1. For entry as a lyric (which will line up and stay with it's assigned note), you can enter the first note letter
2. Hit the "Enter" key (like you're entering a second verse) while still in that editing box, then type in two dashes. (disclaimer - the note names aren't correct - I was just typing letters )

When it's done it looks like this:

You can also do the same steps in Text/Free Text when entering text in the editing box, and the results look a little different (dashes in lyrics are treated as melismas, which are connected, rather than distinct dash marks as for the Free Text):

Hope this helps!
