THANK YOU ALL FOR THE HELP! The slurs look less terrible now!
I submitted my application to a program this summer so it was super
important for me to get done! And you all came through for me. I deeply
appreciate it!
I have different issues coming up, so expect more questions lol

with slurs seem to remain open.
Maybe someone could build on Mike's work on cross-staff beam collisions to
solve cross-staff c
Hi Molly,
in your example .ly file, the tweaking of the PhrasingSlur seems to be
kind-of necessary (and I admit the default phrasing slur looks awful).
As for the collision with lyrics: It seems that \shape'd slurs may
collide with lyrics and the like in a way that non-\shape'd slurs don't.
