Re: Define "tweak" function

[Ahanu Banerjee]

Thanks for the quick reply. I am looking to create a function that can apply to more than one type of object, in this instance, slurs, articulations, and possibly fingerings. All the examples I have seen require specifying the object. Is it possible to have a function behave like "-\tweak" that acts on the object that follows it regardless of type?
