Maximum Lines

Adjust Lyriken T' Fit

This option prevents text from wrappin' lines when projectin' lyriken. This be enabled by default since it be assumed that lines and stanzas be designed t' aid in phrasin' o' th' melody. If turned off, th' lyriken may be wrapped if th' font size be set too large.
