Dear LilyPonders,
by default LilyPond hides the hyphen after a line break.
Is it possible to make it always visible?
There is a regtest file to check this behavior: lyric-hyphen-break.ly.
I'm using it as a test file.
Hyphens are spanners, right?
In the doc I found this hint:
"The visibility of spanners which end on the first note following a line
break is controlled by the after-line-breaking callback
ly:spanner::kill-zero-spanned-time.
For objects such as glissandos and hairpins, the default behaviour is to
hide the spanner after a break; disabling the callback will allow the
left-broken span to be shown. "
I played with \override LyricHyphen #'after-line-breaking (see file
attached), but nothing changed in the output.
Actually, I'm not directly interested in this issue. I'm just trying to
help Luca (reviewer of Italian documentation), who asked a couple of
times about this and never got a reply:

Thanks in advance for your help,
Federico
