What you're doing is just creating a text script, not an articulation. I use
the following code to create a custom real articulation; you'll obviously have
to adapt some of it to fit yours.
```
#(define (draw-unaccent grob)
(let ((stil (make-path-stencil '(M -0.435 0.435 C -0.435 0.185 -0.250 0 0 0
C 0.250 0 0.435 0.185 0.435 0.435) 0.13 1 1 #f))
(dir (ly:grob-property grob 'direction CENTER)))
(if (= dir DOWN)
(ly:stencil-scale stil 1 -1)
stil)))
#(define unaccent-script-alist
(cons `("unaccent" .
((avoid-slur . around)
(padding . 0.30)
(side-relative-direction . ,DOWN)
))
default-script-alist))
\layout {
\context {
\Score
scriptDefinitions = #unaccent-script-alist
}
}
unaccent =
-\tweak stencil #draw-unaccent
#(make-articulation "unaccent" 'midi-extra-velocity -30)
```
