Re: Placing articulations outside of the staff.

[Calvin Ransom]

Hi Kieren

I did mean to say accent and not accidental (was writing that email and this one when I should have gone to sleep 6 hours ago)

I will try that tomorrow. 

Thank you for the help,

Calvin Ransom

Hi Calvin,

> I am trying to make the tenuto and accidental stay outside of the staff when together.

Do you mean accent? Staccato?

> Am I not understanding how tweaks work correctly?

If you want things to stay outside the staff, you need to set their outside-staff-priority (which is #f by default):

    \override Script.outside-staff-priority = #0
        c''8[ ---> a']-.

Hope that helps!
Kieren.
