Hi all,
I am having some challenges getting grace notes to do
what I intended, with lyrics and also in combination.
The first case is as follows:
g'2\grace a'8( g'2 ) | g'2
ya-leh
with the slur the lyrics syllable is pushed to the

indeed, but it's actually wrong, since grace notes

OF course, that doesn't help if the rest of the piece does have slurs.
Well, you can just switch it on again, right? Isn't that what
\set ignoreMelismata = ##t
\unset ignoreMelismata
is for?
Yes indeed,
what would be nice would be another type of slur for
melismata. or maybe have a slur in the lyrics block,
that would make it an explicit slur for lyrics.

One option is to use phrasing slurs, \(...\), for slurs that
