Re: Slur through a rest

[Neil Thornock]

Well I haven't tested this, but I generally have troubles with slurs
that cross staves, such as you have here.  What you want to use are
the control-points and probably some type of offset.  A good
implementation of cross-staff slurs someday will be wonderful.

I think he means that you need spacer grace notes in every staff at
the same location as the actual grace notes.  You should see the break
problem go away if you do.

Hang in there -- I used Finally for 13 years but will never go back
now that I've gotten Lilypond under my belt.  The output is simply too
beautiful.
