Thanks again - but the grace note does not fix the slur problem in my second
minimal example:
{
\grace s8 \set Score.skipTypesetting = ##t
e'2~ e'8( d' cis' b) a2~ a8( a' g' e')
\grace s8 \set Score.skipTypesetting = ##f
d'16\p d' d' d' d' d' d' d' d'8 r8 r4
}
I guess for now i'll do it the old fashioned way - shame, because it so nearly
gets it right
hopefully someone in dev will find some time to look at this again soon
