Maybe http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.0/input/regression/out-www/collated-files.html#slur-staccato.ly
can provide some help?

Hello, all:

Does Lilypond correctly handle slurs that end on staccato notes?

While engraving my "Parachute Rag", I am running into the following:



Seems to me that the first slur should end a little lower than it does (though it's VERY close), and the second should be a different shape as well (this one is farther from "optimal" than the first).

I know slurs and ties are a (very) difficult issue in engraving, but is there an easier way to get Lilypond to "do the right thing" than to tweak each slur and tie manually? (Yes, I'm even willing to get my programming hands dirty, if necessary...)

Best regards,
Kieren.

p.s. even untweaked, Lilypond's output is superior to any other engraving software I've seen -- kudos again to the whole team!
