(Win XP/ LP 2.8.3-1) double-click on .ly breaks paths?

2006-05-21 Thread A. Deubelbeiss
Hi there, Since I upgrode from 2.8.0 to 2.8.2 and later 2.8.3, Lilypond is throwing strange fits that seem related to file paths getting lost. This happens only when I double-click a .ly file; everything works perfectly when I type "lilypond filename.ly" into a console window. Presumably some

Isn't it that if you specify the avoid-slur property of the Tie object, then slurs will avoid ties (not that ties will avoid scripts as you seem to think)? Note that the avoid-slur property is set on a number of different objects by default, including Fingering, Accidental, DynamicText, Tie and s
