That is because the description is for Note Based Lyrics and that is not yet an available feature on the Mac version of BiaB.

People are trying to help, and that's all well and good, but if they don't have the Macintosh computer and the Mac ver of BB, well, they are in the dark about a lot of it.

The Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page for BB2009 for Mac is here:

Good idea to bookmark that link.

Using my browser's page-search function to search for the string, "lyric" I get the following:

7. How do I get Lyrics to line up in Band in a Box?

Currently, only "line-based" lyrics are available in Band-in-a-Box for Macintosh. The lyric line used for line-based lyrics is only a space to put lyric text. It is in no way tied to notes. If you are having a problem with the way your lyrics are lining up, try going to the Print Options window and deselecting 'clef sign at every line and 'Key signature at every line'. This will stop the notation from getting pushed out of alignment with the lyrics. All bars but the first four should line up correctly after this.






Hope this helps,
