voiceXXX with slurs, phrasing and staccato

[Luc]

Hi!

 

I have written a small "\book" about some pecularities in the context of \voiceXXX.

 

Thanks for having a look at it!

 \markup \teeny \wordwrap-string #
 "In general the results are very excellent!
 
 However personnaly I would prefer slurs and phrasing slurs to keep a minimal distance at the endings,
 with voiceXXX phrasing slurs and fingering are  messed up,
 and staccato dots are aligned with the noteheads whereas the voiceXXX slurs are aligned with the stems
 - wouldn't it be nicer to have both in the same alignement?"
