As you can see, I am having some issues with slurs colliding with dots. Dorico puts the combination of dots and slurs on the stem side, but it is more common in string writing to place them as I have them. Unfortunately, then they collide. I’ve looked at the engraving options for slurs and collisions, but I don’t see anything that would help me automate this.
This is a bit of a subtle one. Dorico is ending up treating these slurs as “inner slurs”, i.e. slurs that are not between the outermost notes on either side of the staff, and hence they don’t get automatically routed around protrusions. Fortunately this is easy to fix: select the slurs that are colliding, and in Engrave mode, activate the Avoid collisions property, and activate the checkbox.
