Thanks for the help. I'm glad that the right way to do this is reasonably straightforward, this example code provided by Simon: \layout { \context { \Voice \override Slur.height-limit = 5.6 } } But this makes me wonder why our docs don't mention this approach? Below are some

I was trying to figure out why in lilypond, by default, slurs seem too shallow and run into accidentals. It seems like the state of the art is to tweak each slur individually using \shape to specify displacements from current control points. Wouldn't it be better to change the defaults to
