Well, I'll be darned!
I've been dragging those darned things around forever! I never knew!
I still have to nudge them away from accidentals (unless I duplicate an
alternate with new positioning, not a bad idea), and I adjusted some of
your numbers, but hey, it works!
Thanks for that.

Hi Chuck and Christopher,
Unless I misunderstand, you can choose "center over note" and fix
automatic
positioning left or right of the note by adjusting the values in the
"handle
positioning" dialog box, which is accessed through the "handle
positioning"
button in the Articulation Designer dialog.
I don't have any scoops in the file I'm in right now so I just gave a
single
tremelo slash the approximate positioning of a scoop with the following
(evpu) settings:
1) Center horizontally should be checked
2) Default vertical position = -22
Handle positioning
3) Main symbol - H: -58
4) Main symbol - V: -12
5) Flipped symbol - H: -58
6) Flipped symbol - V: -12
Start there with your scoop and it should get you in the ball park.
You can
tweak it from there. Just use positive "H" numbers for your fall.

There will always be a problem placing non-centred articulations
like a fall or scoop, because the horizontal positioning works from
your click point. If you are a millimetre too far left, then the
articulation will be, too. The bend places correctly every time
because it has the box checked "Centre over note", which cannot be
checked for the scoops and falls.
So, does this mean that it is impossible (impractical) to set the
handles of such articulations to be centered over the note head, and
the articulation offset for correct placement? Is there a problem I
don't understand which would prevent that solution?
