Text-tune pairing count off by one

Tue, 10/17/2023 - 20:29 — Haruo

I make a lot of use of the "All texts used with [tune]" and "All tunes used with [text]" search features, wouldn't surprise me if I'm your best customer on that particular point, and one thing that never ceases to make me wonder (uselessly, I imagine) is why the "New Search Page" so frequently shows one more instance of a pairing than the "Old Search Page" does. It isn't usually a really important deal, except for the amount of sleep I lose worrying about it. If you (Dianne or anybody) can explain to me why this happens so much (yet not always) it'll add hours to my productive lifespan. Here, if I can post the comparison of screen shots, is what I'm talking about

And while we're at it

What on earth is a hymn with the first line "Aidan and Oswald, King, Finan and Colman too" about?

Aidan and Oswald

We do not have the lyrics to "Aidan and Oswald..." but it is in the "Celtic Hymn Book" published by Kevin Mayhew in 2005. You added the hymnal and the hymn, so maybe you have a copy?

Yeah, you're right

I know I added the book, and have it somewhere, but where I don't know at the moment. When it surfaces, I'll try to remember to look and see. My collection of 700+ hymnals has been in some degree of chaos, particularly since my wife's death. I'm working on it, but setting them back in order of necessity hasn't been at the top of my list.

Count off by one

This is a bug. It should be fixed soon. We are currently subtracting 1 from the count on the old search page when we should not be.

FlexScore does not match notes/timing of tune to syllables/words

I have been trying to use FlexScore to match words written by a friend to the tune Adelaide (Have Thine Own Way, Lord) and I cannot make the words and notes match. I have tried putting hyphens between every syllable. Did not work. I have tried putting space hyphen space between each syllable. Did not work. I went back and left it “plain” again. Did not work. I found nothing about this in the tutorial. Am I missing something? Any help would be most appreciated. This is the main reason I paid the subscription. If there is no solution, I think I need to ask for a refund.

Custom FlexScores - syllables

Syllables should be separated by a space, two dashes, and a space as in “I will wor – ship.” You can find instructions by clicking on the ? next to “Stanzas”
