Description
Your idea
For guitar scores, a slur lines are used for hammer-ons and pull-offs, meaning you play the notes with your fretting hand.
Currently you can only add the slur line to the top notes of a slur. I think there should be an option to slur multiple notes in a chord, at least for guitar scores.
If this causes bugs for slurring on all other instruments, then we can consider making a new slur line object under the Guitar Pallette called "hammer-on/pull-off".
In the attached photo, you can see that it looks like I am telling the player to hammer-on the top note while plucking the bottom note.
Here is a link to the same song in Songsterr. My photo is the same as the first measure of this tab. On Songsterr, both notes are correctly slurred.
Problem to be solved
Allowing proper legato notation on the guitar
Prior art
In Songsterr you can indeed slur multiple notes of a chord at once
