Also, I found some examples for this behaviour, as already said. Sometimes Slurs are very difficult to set, even manually. That said, generally I'd agree. > Thomas Morley-2 wrote >> Engraving nice looking Slurs is always a challenge and no, LilyPond >> doesn't end Slurs beyond the last Note. >> Though, your example triggers some cases where LilyPond does so. >> >> Sometimes you could use details.edge-attraction-factor, >> details.free-head-distance, ratio, height-limit. > > Nice to hear that the problem wasn't my beginner code but something else! > About the 'details' commands like "same-slope-penalty", > "steeper-slope-factor, "non-horizontal-penalty"... is there any place where > it is explained or do we have to guess what it affects?

Well, openlilylib can be run in a git-repository. It's the recommended method. Though, you can also copy/paste the relevant code, delete certain openlilylib-commands and can start playing ... Again, the code in question doesn't work with 2.19.
