I've managed to bypass using before-line-breaking AND after-line-breaking
by assigning the function to the 'thickness property and having each grob
internally calculate its own control points rather than relying on it being
calculated elsewhere (also attached):
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.19.36"
#(define (variable-slur-thickness min-l max-l min-t max-t) (lambda (grob)
(let* ((cpt (ly:slur::calc-control-points grob))
(cp0 (car cpt)) (cp3 (cadddr cpt))
(x0 (car cp0)) (y0 (cdr cp0))
(x1 (car cp3)) (y1 (cdr cp3))
(len (sqrt (+ (expt (- x1 x0) 2) (expt (- y1 y0) 2))))
(thickness
(if (<= len max-l)
(if (< len min-l)
min-t
(+ min-t
(* (- len min-l)
(/ (- max-t min-t) (- max-l min-l)))))
max-t)))
thickness)))
\score {
\relative c' { \repeat unfold 12 { c1( d) c( d e) c( d e f) c( d e f g) }
}
\layout {
\override Slur.thickness = #(variable-slur-thickness 3 10 1 12.7)
}
}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
This is certainly an extreme case to illustrate the effect, but it seems to
be working as designed. If we are all satisfied with the functionality,
I'll update the snippet. The only thing I'm (slightly) concerned with is
the duplicate control-point calculation in this function and how it might
affect compilation times if this were applied to a large orchestral score,
for example.
Best,
Abraham
