Thanks. I'm very happy :-) However, the best default for \slurDashed will be something else (smaller period, like 0.8). I'll have to create some test to find the best. Bert ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mail

I've created the patches for the 2.4 branch. What do you say? Should convert-ly also be modified? I've attached a sample image: the new output of (the new) input/slur-dash.ly True that it's too simplistic, but better than it was. Bert Index: input/test/slur-dash.ly ===

Hello, I wanted to contribute a patch for nicer slurs, but I don't really know how to do it. I've found that dashed slurs are quite ugly. That's because output-ps.scm sets the dash length to the property Slur.dashed, but the gap between dashes is set to 10*slur.thickness, that is not good. I've
