LilyPond Internals Reference: 3.2.89 script-interface

### 3.2.89 script-interface

An object that is put above or below a note.

#### User settable properties:

> `add-stem-support` (boolean)

>   If set, the `Stem` object is included in this script’s support.

> `avoid-slur` (symbol)

>   Method of handling slur collisions. Choices are `inside`, `outside`, `around`, and `ignore`. `inside` adjusts the slur if needed to keep the grob inside the slur. `outside` moves the grob vertically to the outside of the slur. `around` moves the grob vertically to the outside of the slur only if there is a collision. `ignore` does not move either. In grobs whose notational significance depends on vertical position (such as accidentals, clefs, etc.), `outside` and `around` behave like `ignore`.

> `script-priority` (number)

>   A sorting key that determines in what order a script is within a stack of scripts.

> `side-relative-direction` (direction)

>   Multiply direction of `direction-source` with this to get the direction of this object.

> `slur-padding` (number)

>   Extra distance between slur and script.

> `toward-stem-shift` (number)

>   Amount by which scripts are shifted toward the stem if their direction coincides with the stem direction. `0.0` means keep the default position (centered on the note head), `1.0` means centered on the stem. Interpolated values are possible.

#### Internal properties:

> `direction-source` (graphical (layout) object)

>   In case `side-relative-direction` is set, which grob to get the direction from.

> `positioning-done` (boolean)

>   Used to signal that a positioning element did its job. This ensures that a positioning is only done once.

> `script-stencil` (pair)

>   A pair `(type . arg)` which acts as an index for looking up a `Stencil` object.

> `slur` (graphical (layout) object)

>   A pointer to a `Slur` object.

This grob interface is used in the following graphical object(s): AccidentalSuggestion, DynamicText and Script.
