Note that the requested feature rather was to have a property setting that lets you specify explicitly if you want the slur close to the note head or close to the end of the stem, as we used to have in old LilyPond versions, where you could do something like \override Slur #'attachment = #'(ste

PNG image attached. This shows the default behavior when the slur is specifically positioned on the stem side, then there's a manually positioned slur showing more what it ought to look like, and finally another slur showing the default behavior when there are more than two notes being slurred

Here's a quick test of Kieren's suggestion, showing first the overridden slur and then one without the override. Not too hard to do as long as there aren't too many. This is a good trick to know. Thanks Kieren :) \version "2.11.61" \relative c' { \once \override Slur #'positions = #'(2 .

Ah. I see the problem now. I guess Kieren's suggestion is probably the way to go. It might be possible to store the override in a variable instead of having to do it repeatedly in the code. I've never used this override, though, so I don't know. Good luck! Jon Ari Torhamo wrote: ti, 200

Hi Ari, What I'd like to see is to have the slur start from the other end of the stem - the end where there's no note. There used to be a functions that allowed you to set the slur to begin at the stem — it was deprecated/eliminated several versions ago. Now, you must use \override Slur #'
