If there are multiple articulations on the same notes, their vertical position and proximity to noteheads/stems depends on their type.
Articulations are positioned in the following order:
-
Articulations of duration are positioned closest to notehead/stems.
-
Articulations of force are positioned outside articulations of duration.
-
Articulations of stress are positioned furthest from noteheads/stems.
Order of articulations in relation to slurs
Articulations of duration are positioned as follows:
-
Inside slurs that start/end on a note or chord with an articulation.
-
Inside the curvature of a slur.
-
Inside tuplet brackets.
Articulations of force are positioned as follows:
-
Outside slurs that start/end on a note or chord with an articulation, except if they can be positioned within the staff.
-
Inside the curvature of a slur if they fit between the slur and the note or stem, to which they belong, without colliding.
-
Outside tuplet brackets.
