I'm not sure what you want to achieve, but try adding the avoid-slur
property to the fingering:

\version "2.24.0"
\language "english"

\relative {
\override Staff.Fingering.layer = 2 % fingering should overwrite
slurs
\override Staff.Fingering.avoid-slur = #'ignore
r4 r8 -1-3( 16-2-4 -1-5-2-4-3-5) }

Showing fingering on top of slurs

2024-05-09 Thread Paul McKay
Hi
I want to show the fingering in front of the slurs. This should keep the
fingerings evenly spaced vertically over the notes.  I have tried the
following :

\version "2.24.0"
\language "english"

\relative {
\override Staff.Fingering.layer = 2 % fingering should overwrite
slurs
r4 r8 -1-3( 16-2-4 -1-5-2-4-3-5) }

Fingerings still avoid the slurs.
What am I missing?
Thanks
