I knew about it and tried to modify it using example from Extending 2.6 (http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.15/Documentation/extending/difficult-tweaks), but failed very soon. Frankly, i think this function (i mean the extended version by Dmytro, which allows for easy tweaking of both broken and unbroken slurs) is essential for producing good-looking Lily scores that contain broken slurs. I don't understand how it's possible to reasonably work with broken slurs, given the fact that they are quite often imperfect, without this function... cheers, Janek ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
Re: Shaping slurs --- both broken and unbroken
Janek I agree this could be a useful addition to the LilyPond distribution and the docs (both at the same time, preferably).

where's the slur? (4 year old question)
Folks: I want to typeset the following fragment but I can't get lilypond to produce the effect I'm looking for. Here's what I've provided lilypond as input: \new Staff { \time 2/2 2 ~ } The effect I want is arcs drawn between each of the three notes in the two chords; ties between the 'c' and 'a' and a slur between the 'e' and 'd'. What lilypond produces are the ties between the 'c' and 'a' but the slur isn't produced. Essentially, lilypond produces output for this input: \new Staff { \time 2/2 2 ~ } How can I get lilypond to produce the arc between the 'e' and the 'd'? I did ask this very same question 4 years ago. At that time I received two answers: one suggested it was a bug that had been fixed in an upcoming release, and the other said it worked provided I change the input slightly. I've been typesetting the sheet music containing this construction with each new version of lilypond I download and I haven't seen the fix. Perhaps I'm not providing the appropriate input but I haven't seen anything in the documentation that provides the correct syntax for what I want to do. As for the second response that said it worked with the following altered input: \new Staff { \time 2/2 2( ~ ) } While this does produce 3 arcs, the arcs aren't drawn where they should be. In the above 'suggested' solution, lilypond is creating the slur between the two chords, as well as ties between the 'a' and the 'c'; the slur I want is between the 'e' and 'd', not the entire chord. For the last 4 years, I have been manually (with a pen!) altering printouts of this music. Can someone please tell me how to force or coerce lilypond into providing the output I'm looking for? regards, eh. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

In the "regular" case (for example \multiMeter 2/2 3/4 c2 e2 | g4 g4 g4 | a2 d2 | e4 f4 c4 | c2 g2 ... - i.e. one bar of first meter, one bar of second, one bar of fisrt, and so on) it's surely doable.

We are watching you wherever you are ;) Concerning integrating this function with Lily, i suppose it should be added to music-functions-init.ly (that's where compoundMeter ended as i see).
