Slur

Slur objects are created by: Slur_engraver

Standard settings:

control-points (list):

ly:slur::calc-control-points

List of offsets (number-pairs) that form control points for the tie/slur/bracket shape. For beziers, this should list the control points of a 3rd order bezier curve.

direction (direction):

ly:slur::calc-direction

If side-position is 1 (#X), then this property determines if the object is placed #LEFT, #CENTER or #RIGHT with respect to the other object. Otherwise, it determines if the object is placed #UP #CENTER or #DOWN. Numerical values may also be used. #UP=1, #DOWN=-1, #LEFT=-1, #RIGHT=1, CENTER=0 but also other numerical values are permitted.

springs-and-rods (boolean):

ly:spanner::set-spacing-rods

Dummy variable for triggering spacing routines.

Y-extent (pair of numbers):

ly:slur::height

See X-extent.

stencil (unknown):

ly:slur::print

The symbol to print.

thickness (number):

1.2

Line thickness, generally measured in line-thickness.

line-thickness (number):

0.8

The thickness of the tie/slur contour.

minimum-length (dimension, in staff space):

1.5

Try to make a spanner at least this long. This requires an appropriate callback for the springs-and-rods property.

height-limit (dimension, in staff space):

2.0

Maximum slur height: the longer the slur, the closer it is to this height.

ratio (number):

0.25

Parameter for slur shape. The higher this number, the quicker the slur attains it height-limit.

avoid-slur (symbol):

'inside

Method of handling slur collisions. Choices are around, inside, outside. If unset, script and slur ignore eachother.

This object supports the following interfaces: spanner-interface, slur-interface and grob-interface
