Hi everyone,

I have a situation where I am using a repeatTie in a second ending that I
want to shape more like a slur.  The note is staccato and I want the
repeatTie to be over the dot, but no matter how much room I allow for the
dot, it never goes below the repeatTie (see attached, code below.)

I have a solution (see third ending), which is to adjust the tie shape and
the Y-offset of the dot to position it where I want it, but is there a
better way?

%%% Start code
\version "2.24.4"

tieShapeA = \shape #'((0 . 2) (0 . 2.4) (1 . 2.4) (1 . 2)) \etc
tieShapeB = \shape #'((0 . 1) (0 . 1.4) (1 . 1.4) (1 . 1)) \etc

\relative {
  \repeat volta 3 {
    c''4 c c c( |
    \alternative {
      { e4-.) c c c | }
      { e4-.-\tieShapeA \repeatTie r r2 | }
      { e4-\offset Y-offset -1.3 -.-\tieShapeB \repeatTie r r2 | }
    }
  }
}
%%% End code
