Hi,

I'm using a separate voice to indicate articulations (bowing directions in
this example), but occasionally the articulations collide with the note
stems (as seen in bar 2 of the snippet below).

My goal is to be able to turn articulations on and off easily, especially
for different versions of the same score.

Questions
1. Is this the best way to separate articulations from the melody?
2. Is there a better way to turn articulations on and off?
3. How do I avoid collisions between the articulations and the note stems?

Thanks,
Greg
