SlursA slur indicates that notes are to be played bound or legato. They are entered using parentheses: f'-( g'-)-( a'-) [a'8 b'-(-] a'4 g'2 f'4-) <<c' e'>>2-( <<b d'>>2-) See also Slur . Slurs avoid crossing stems, and are generally attached to note heads.
However, in some situations with beams, slurs may be attached to stem
ends. If you want to override this layout you can do this through the
object property \slurUp \property Voice.Stem \set #'length = #5.5 g'8-(g g4-) \property Voice.Slur \set #'attachment = #'(stem . stem) g8-( g g4-) If a slur would strike through a stem or beam, the slur will be moved away upward or downward. If this happens, attaching the slur to the stems might look better: \stemUp \slurUp d32-( d'4 d8..-) \property Voice.Slur \set #'attachment = #'(stem . stem) d,32-( d'4 d8..-) BUGS Producing nice slurs is a difficult problem, and LilyPond currently uses a simple, empiric method to produce slurs. In some cases, the results of this method are ugly. |
