Basic:
◆ Position Value block
Block the position value of the "phrase_start" event will automatically fill in the position input for each jutsu feature.
◆ Hidden Symbol
Certain symbols will not appear in the lyrics, this will be useful in creating unique lyrics.
Example: " - " (hyphen), " _ " (underscore), " * " (asterisk), you can also use tags (<i></i>), etc.
◆ Element / Tags
Here are the tags that work on lyrics.
◆ Symbols
We have collected the symbols that work on the lyrics. You can get the symbol by pressing the symbol in the Symbol Picker widget (bottom right of the window), and the symbol will automatically be copied to the clipboard. You can also get it by bringing up the Get Symbol window (Alt+S), there is also a show txt button which contains symbols compiled by Ismaya Melasrana.
◆ Custom Font
You can use a custom font that can be displayed on the lyrics with the Weird Text Generator (Alt+W) feature. This feature converts plain text to a custom font, and you just need to copy it.
◆ Global Event Grouping
Global Event Grouping is a basic technique for manipulating lyrics. This is done by positioning Global Events closely together in a sequential order.
• Grouping 3 Layers: The lyric phrase will not appear to have a SlideUp transition.
• Grouping 5 Layers: The event of the lyric phrase in the middle will appear to be skipped.
Add Jutsu (Alt+1) is a feature to make it easier for you to create Global Event Grouping. "No SlideUp Transition" will generate 3 layer events. "Hide Next Phrase" and "Fake Next Phrase" will generate 5 event layers.
Advanced:
After understanding the basics of manipulating lyrics, now use your creativity to create something cool with your lyrics.
◆ Lyric Color (method 1)
Apply a custom color to a lyrical phrase with a simpler method.
◆ Lyric Color (method 2)
Applies a custom color to a lyrical phrase by creating a 'color' tag for each syllable.
◆ Kan2Rom
Converts lyrics from Kanji text to Romaji text for one lyric phrase for each syllable (usually used for Japanese song lyrics). You can also use other writing systems such as Hangeul and others.
◆ Playing Note Symbol
The symbol that follows the Note is generated by combining Global Event Grouping (3/5 Layer), tag color, and symbol.
◆ Translation on Next Phrase
To implement this, you apply Add Jutsu to the next "start_phrase" of the current phrase. Select the "Fake Next Lyric" option, then type input fake lyric with the lyric translation of the current phrase.
