Slur option end first whole bar duration

I’m missing a choice of slur end in the case of series of tied notes : the first whole bar note :

if there is a long series of tied notes the last note isn’t really an option for the slur end :

you can do the first note

but my first choice has always been the first whole bar note :

And this is also, I notice, the first choice of Gould in Behind Bars…:

add ?

See Engraving options>Slurs>Tied notes to set your default options.

As usual you can override the default whenever you want by using the properties panel for any selected slur.

in properties (qs in the options) you have two choices : first note or last note.
there is no “first whole bar note”.

There is no option for this style, I fear.

that’s why this is a feature request :slight_smile:

sorry, didn’t see this - I concur (though I’ve never seen this in real life)
