Re: slur crossing bar and time signature change; solved thanks
thanks to all for the quick responses and solution. I tend to find where to put ties and slurs confusing (more confusing than my first mistyping) so thank you to the addressed and to Brian On 2021-12-24 13:40, Lukas-Fabian Moser wrote: Hi, Am 24.12.21 um 21:24 schrieb jh: \time 5/8 \tempo 4 = 86 d8 e fis4 e8 d e4 d8 c\time 6/8 (b4) d8 b a4 \bar "|." when I try to do this the slur does not connect between the c and b4 there is now a slur starting at the b4 and extends until there is another slur over many measures. Hope there is a solution or at least clarification. Slurs are attached to notes (and entered after the note, hence "post-events"). \time 6/8 is new music occuring at the same time as b4, but you can't meaningfully attach a slur to a time signature change. The solution is simple: Attacht the opening slur to your note c, i.e. c( \time 6/8 instead of c \time 6/8 (. By the way, I'd recommend to put the \time 6/8 onto its own line: \relative c' { \time 5/8 \tempo 4 = 86 d8 e fis4 e8 d e4 d8 c( \time 6/8 b4) d8 b a4 \bar "|." } Lukas

yes that did it thank you. On 2021-12-24 13:38, Brian Barker wrote: At 13:24 24/12/2021 -0700, you wrote: \time 5/8 \tempo 4 = 86 d8 e fis4 e8 d e4 d8 c\time 6/8 (b4) d8 b a4 \bar "|." The slur parentheses are postfixed to the appropriate elements. Instead of c\time 6/8 (b4) you need c( \time 6/8 b4) I trust this helps. Brian Barker - privately

Re: slur crossing bar and time signature change
yes of course i mistyped. Sorry here's kind of the minimal example 2.22 \time 5/8 \tempo 4 = 86 d8 e fis4 e8 d e4 d8 c\time 6/8 (b4) d8 b a4 \bar "|." when I try to do this the slur does not connect between the c and b4 there is now a slur starting at the b4 and extends until there is another slur over many measures.
