Re: `->` handled differently to `-.`?

[Valentin Petzel]

Hello Werner,

if you look into script.scm you’ll see that > and . are in fact handled 
slightly differently. But this does not matter here. You can see on the cis 
that the dot is there (sticking to the bottom of the cis). But without stem 
the articulations are placed at the center line. This means that the b and the 
. are in the same place. The only reason why this does not affect > here is 
that the > is on a d. If you lower that d to a b you will see note and > 
colliding.

Note that this is only happening because Lilypond is not able to assign a 
direction to the Script without Stem. So if you explicitely give a direction 
to these Scripts they will align nicely.

Cheers,
Valentin
