I want / need to display the minus sign "-" in my vocals.

 

In EOF, it looks like the way it is supposed to be:

 

Ih-ah! Ih-ah!

 

Now the following is from the generated XML:

  <vocal time="67.810" note="254" length="0.997" lyric="Ih-"/>
  <vocal time="68.810" note="254" length="1.247" lyric="ah!"/>
  <vocal time="70.060" note="254" length="0.747" lyric="Ih-"/>
  <vocal time="70.810" note="254" length="0.997" lyric="ah!+"/>

And in Rocksmith this becomes:

 

Ihah! Ihah!

 

Is there a way to "protect" a minus sign from beeing interpreted as a separator of syllables?

 

Edit:

I tried including a "dash" instead...

First I tried –, but this gives an error in the toolkit.

Then I tried ‒, but this gives only an empty space in Rocksmith

 

Now there are many more codes for dashes, if noone has an idea I will probably end up testing them all...

Just add another "-".

Your lyrics in EOF should look like "Ih-- ah!"

what Fire said, I'm always doing like that

Or use = sign. It appears as - in Rocksmith.
