How do I persuade Lilypond to position all accent marks inside
slurs? At the moment, in a passage containing numerous accents and
slurs, I am finding that some accents are outside the slur and some
inside, which looks a mess!
It's hard to help you with a Minimum WorkingExample (MWE, see
https://lilypond.org/tiny-examples.html) but a sledgehammer approach
would be to use...
\override Script.avoid-slur = #'inside
This will force ALL Scripts inside of the slurs, but that means other
things like pralls and turns too. You could do them one by one with:
\tweak avoid-slur = #'inside
Post a MWE for us to work with and we'll give you a better answer.
Thanks - that's perfect. The difficulty I had was that I couldn't
figure out what class of object an accent is. I had already tried
\override TextScript.avoid-slur = #'inside
but this of course doesn't work. I couldn't find out from the
documentation how accents etc. are classified, although I expect it is
there somewhere.
If you would like to modify the avoid-slur behaviour of all accents (but
not other articulations) you could try this.
\version "2.24.0"
#(let* ((name 'accent)
(newvalue '(avoid-slur . inside))
(articulation (assoc-ref default-script-alist name)))
(set! articulation (assoc-remove! articulation (car newvalue)))
(set! articulation (assoc-set! articulation (car newvalue) (cdr
newvalue)))
(set! default-script-alist (assoc-set! default-script-alist name
articulation)))
{
a'4( b'^\trill c''^> d'')
}
