When I want the articulation above I use my above
definition/metatool. When I want it below, I use my below one.
But I never need to enter one articulation and have the software
choose for me.
well that is kind of the point, that is exactly what this function
offers. for example, staccato on note side when 1 layer, but
auto-position will reposition it above layer 1 and below layer 2
where there are multiple voices.
definition of 1 artic rather than 2. don't see how you can argue
that that isn't great. i have a few cases of multiple artics of
course as well (accent that sits a bit further from the notehead to
avoid collisions with slurs that IMO should be done by the software
automatically) but i don't see any reason not to reduce the number of
artics if built-in functionality allows for it.
