Hello all,

In the snippet below, I have a single voice with two slurs. I want the lower one to be dashed. I can’t seem to find the proper incantation; three (of many) ways that I’ve tried are included in the snippet.

Any guidance would be appreciated!

%%%% SNIPPET BEGINS
\version "2.19.80"

{
c''1 \=1( -\slurDashPattern #0.5 #2.0 \=2_(
c'' \=1) \=2)
}

{
c''1 \=1( \slurDashPattern #0.5 #2.0 \=2_(
c'' \=1) \=2)
}

{
c''1 \=1( -\tweak dash-fraction #0.5 \=2_(
c'' \=1) \=2)
}
%%%% SNIPPET ENDS

\slurDashPattern creates an override but you want a tweak. so

Yep. Thanks. (I thought I tried that, but clearly not.)
