Hello, I'm having a problem with my slur, and I've looked everywhere and don't know how to fix it. There is a line break and my slur is starting at the beginning of the staff, but my tie begins after the key signature. It looks rather odd, and I would like to make it so that the slur begins where the tie begins. Any ideas?
Also, another problem I'm having: is it possible to have a slur/tie go in different directions before and after the break? In one part, I have a tie going down that crosses a break, but the note becomes the upper voice of a polyphonic split on the next line, so when the tie goes down on the next line, it looks like it belongs to the wrong voice and is rather confusing, but if I have all the ties going up, then the line above when there's still only one voice, it just looks stupid. Any thoughts? I've attached a picture and the code, although I'm sure you won't need all of the code. Please help. Glendan
