The slur support has been reimplemented in version 2.6 and further improved in the latest development versions, 2.7.9 or later. Before you invest too much time on tweaking the output of version 2.4, you may want to try a newer version. Note also that you cannot expect the tweaks you do for version 2.4 to be of any specific relevance in later LilyPond versions.

Hello, I write a piece of Wagner, where there is many many slurs. To make them look better (without collision with staff lines, accidentals, other slurs and ties, to make them stick to notes) I use such predefinitions: \override Slur #'extra-offset... \override Slur #'height-limit... \override Slur #'control-points... My version of Lilypond is 2.4.5 and my questions are: 1) How to revert the influance of such definitions after using it and after the changed slur? I have problem especcialy with control-points -- all the next slurs are changed. I have tried to use \once before the override command, but then changing next slurs with another command doesn't work at all. I've tried also putting the slured notes into brackets { }, it has no effect either.
You should definitely use \once. The question is just where you should specify the settings, before the beginning of the slur or before the end of the slur. I don't know the answer, so you had better try it out yourself. /Mats _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
