Folks,
please consider the attached images from Beethoven piano sonata op. 14/1, first movement. They show the beginning and end of the first repeat. As can be seen, the slur in the prima-volta box is 'anchored' to the bar line at its right end. How could this be done in LilyPond? A work-around is to have another voice so that I can attach the end to, say, a final, invisible 1/32 note. However, if there is prefatory matter before the bar line (e.g., a time signature), this still doesn't bring the end of the slur near to the bar line. A similar problem exists with ties in volta boxes: right now, we recommend `\laissezVibrer`, however, this doesn't automatically increases the tie length so that it reaches to the end of the bar. You might follow the next two links, which discuss this very issue for MusicXML. https://github.com/w3c-cg/musicxml/issues/678 https://github.com/w3c-cg/musicxml/discussions/666 Having solutions for this problem would also be very beneficial for musicology papers, which often 'cite' a single bar of a larger musical phrase; here we would even need the ability to display slurs that are anchored at *both* sides to the start and end of bar (or staff line) Werner
