Dotted

Slurs appear as dotted lines. The dots are the same size and the same distance apart

over the whole length of the slur.

Half-dashed start

The rst halves of slurs appear as dashed lines, the second halves as solid lines. Used

to denote that a slur was written incompletely in the source in critical editions.

Half-dashed end

The rst halves of slurs appear as solid lines, the second halves as dashed lines. Used

to denote that a slur was written incompletely in the source in critical editions.

Editorial

Slurs appear as solid black lines, but with a smaller vertical line intersecting them

exactly halfway along their length, perpendicular to the curve of the slur. Used to show

that a slur was added by the editor and was not present in the original source.
