Hi all,

I have a question: why the \slurDown instruction is ignored in the
following snippet?

\version "2.12.2"
\paper{ ragged-right=##t }

\relative c' {
       \clef treble
       \key des \major
       \time 9/8

       <<
               {
                       % \slurDown is ignored
                       \stemDown  \slurDown des2.  ~ des4.
               }
               \\
               {
                       \stemUp f8[f ges] f8[bes f]  ees8[f ees] ~
               }
       >>
}

Hi,

Simply because it's not a slut, it's a tie (see http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.13/Documentation/user/lilypond/Writing-rhythms#Ties ).
Use \tieDown instead, it works !  ;-)
