Ok I' look into it.

Then I can do it myself and spare you all those \todo entries ;-)

in an edition I prepare I often have the situation that I want to dash one
sibling of a Slur (because the original edition forgot to start a slur
before the line break.

Is there a convenient way to do so without having to define two curves and


tweak them independently?

Use \alterBroken by David Nalesnik:

\alterBroken Slur #'dash-definition #'(() ((0 1.0 0.4 0.75)))

I think it was published somewhere on the mailing list, and i think we


have it in our library.

This function is available in the current stable release.  I've created issue 3458 for its documentation.

[I'm unsure of the proper place to put this in the NR, as there is a section (2.9 -- "Difficult Tweaks") which describes how to modify broken spanners.] 

Urs, would you mind if I used an editorial slur as an example of its usage?  Do you have a nice one you'd be willing to share?
