Dear @dspreadbury
I can’t get my slurs to look organic (at least according to my humble taste) at a variety of different lengths with the settings provided in the Engraving Options – I’m convinced that this is because of the fact that there are only two different settings available: “long slurs” and “short slurs”.
I’ve experienced the same thing in Sibelius (even though I’m not too fluent in Sib…) where we’re also restricted to settings for “short slurs” and “long slurs” only.
Finale has settings for what they call “short span”, “medium span”, “long span” and “extra long span” slurs (in addition to the general slur settings) and I’m actually using different settings to accommodate different slur lengths which made 98% of my slurs look pretty without touching them manually.
It would be fantastic to see these additional options in Dorico as well as I’m sure that it would take the quality of engraving in Dorico to the next level.
Any plans so far on implementing this?
Cheers
Jochen
