I'm afraid I have never looked into the slur properties, so I hope 
someone else
can help with this question. Of course, a simple solution is \slurUp, 
but that's
maybe not what you want.

How do you want it changed. Assuming that you want to move it up,
increase the padding property: \override TupletBracket #'padding = #2.0

Of course! You can find it all in the
Program Reference -> Backend -> All layout objects 
<http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.6/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond-internals/All-layout-objects.html#All-layout-objects>
but I recommend to first read "9.2.3 Navigating the program reference"
which describes a strategy that often is easier and quicker to find the
relevant documentation.
