Hi Cameron,
There's a \slurHalfSolid command. And there's also the Slur.dash-definition
property, for which there are a couple of examples in the last part of
https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.25/Documentation/notation/slurs.
With your example:
%%% BEGIN %%%
\version "2.25.19"
\fixed c'' {
r2 r4 g, (
\repeat volta 2 {
\mark \default
c4 ) r d4 r |
\alternative {
\volta 1 {
e2.
\once \slurHalfSolid
g,4 (
}
\volta 2 { c1 ) }
}
}
}
\fixed c'' {
r2 r4 g, (
\repeat volta 2 {
\mark \default
c4 ) r d4 r |
\alternative {
\volta 1 {
e2.
\once \override Slur.dash-definition = #'((0 0.5 1 1) (0.5 1 0.001
3))
g,4 (
}
\volta 2 { c1 ) }
}
}
}
%%% END %%%

Note that my values for the second example, with Slur.dash-definition,
leaves a bit of a graphic imperfection. Seems like it should be possible to
dash-definition in a way that truly prints no line of any sort (ie, white),
but I can't seem to figure it out.
HTH,
Trevor.
