Subject: Multiple slurs on chord
Hi
Is it possible to do a multiple slur, one for each note? (see attach)
Thanks
alberto
FWIW, if I were reading that, I'd assume they were ties and not change
the upper two notes.
That’s too narrow-minded. I think that the shape of the curves is rather
characteristic of slurs, and it’s not difficult to distinguish the two
chords visually.
Arguing that ‘there can only be one slur in a voice at a time’ is a
legalistic point of view and _might_ make sense in some situations (e.g.
a dense piano score), but there may equally be good reasons to have more
than one slur in a chord, e.g. if this were from an orchestral score
with three bassoons (or whatever) partcombined onto one staff.
I know that in-chord slurs are now possible (if also not good-looking)
and I recall David K. writing about ‘ID’ features allowing something like
{
\clef bass
\key g \major
s2 <d~ g\=1( b\=2(>
<d fis\=1) a\=2)>4
}
But I don’t recall how much of that is already possible and how much is
merely desired. At any rate I’d consider something like that basically
the right way of coding this example.
Best, Simon
