Re: Slur shapes

[David Nalesnik]

Hi Phil,

The code for \shapeSlur has to be incorporated into your file since it is not a predefined command.

Also, the command should be placed directly before the note to which the slur is attached.

I've attached a corrected file with offsets which get a more reasonable result.  I put the relevant part of the snippet directly into your file, but you could always save it to another .ly file and use an \include.

If I use the snippet attached, the slur over the notes goes way higher than I'd want and makes the stave spacing in my score poor.  I've tried using:

\shapeSlur #'(x1 y1 x2 y2 x3 . .x4 y4)   [well, actually \shapeSlur #'(0 -2.5 -1 3.5 0 0 0 -2.5) ]

but get an error:

error: unknown escaped string: `\shapeSlur'

Does anyone have any ideas on how to get a less extreme shape to the slur, please?
