There is the more cumbersome way of inserting another context layer between Staff and Voice in the context hierarchy and have that carry the Slur_engraver . You can then change Voices temporarily into the same in-between context. Of course that is cumbersome, and when you also have similar requirements for occasionally attaching different voices to the same Stem or Beam or whatnot, this scheme does not scale. But it might work for some situations. -- David Kastrup
