Subject: expressive marks inside slurs


   

2.13.46:

I've been searching the documentation and the web for a while trying
to get accents, etc. inside slurs.

1.  What draws accents, turns, etc.?

 

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/notation/expressive-marks-
attac
hed-to-notes

To get them 'inside' slurs see a few paragraphs down

'Controlling the vertical ordering of scripts'

You need to set the priority of the relevant mark - the example should
give you the hints.

   

Ok.  Since a slur doesn't seem to be a script I went back to trying:

\override Slur #'outside-staff-priority = #-1

after putting it nearer the relevant music code it did move the expressive
marks inside but the vertical spacing increased drastically and produced the
strange result shown by the code below.  Why aren't the accents and
portatos the same distance from the noteheads as the staccato marks are?
They seem to follow the curve of the slur.

Thanks for your help so far.  I had read that part of the documentation and it
didn't seem to make sense since it talked about scripts.

I would still like to know where in the Internals Reference I can find the
tweakable properties of accents, etc.
 

It's the 'etc.' bit that bothers me in that this is not a simple one line 
answer, and the answer is 'it depends'
   


The subject says expressive marks as in NR 1.3


There is a very good section in the Learning Manual

http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/learning/the-internals-reference-manual

That walks you through various scenarios (in fact the first one is a 'slur').
   


The inside slur problem is solved except it brings up what might be a 
bug in terms of placement of expressive marks.

And this should show you how to find which context and grob you need to modify 
for a particular object.
   


I've been there and haven't found expressive marks (accents, etc.) but 
I'll look again tonight.


Thanks,

Paul

I'm not sure why/what happens, but try

\new Staff \with {
  \consists Script_engraver
}
\new Voice \with {
  \remove Script_engraver
} {
 \override  Slur #'outside-staff-priority = #1
 c''4-_( c''-_ c''-_ c''-_) c''4->( c''-> c''-. c''-.)
 c''4-_( c''-_ c''-_ c''-_) c''4->( c''-> c''-. c''-.)
}

(and then if you remove the override it becomes weird...)
