Excuse me for the second post, but I’m finding several inconsistent options in Dorico that prevents me from doing what I want.
To avoid the slur tucking into the corner (see pic. 1), I found this great setting “inside slur endpoint”, that puts the endpoint of the slur over the tenuto. When I need to do exactly the same thing one measure later with an accent (see pic. 2), it suddenly doesn’t have this option.
Is there a different solution without having to manually adjust each slur? Why is Dorico so inconsistent with its properties?
It’s not a question of different articulations, but rather of different articulation types. As you can see, tenuto marks are articulations of duration, and accents are articulations of force – and Dorico provides different properties for each.
Gould says that "[u]sually, only tenuto lines and staccato marks may go inside the first and last notes of a slur.” Ross indicates that those marks are usually placed inside ties and slurs, and that accents may be.
It might be nice if Dorico allowed for explicit positioning of articulations of force.
