Even though slur and tie behave different, the Inspector shows the same name for both : Slur/Tie. Even more confusing is that when right clicking on the tie it says Slur Element.


Comments

I notice that they are distinguished if you look at the status bar at the bottom of the window. That might be a good starting point for investigation.

It says "Slur Segment" actually. Maybe we need to change that to "Slur/Tie Segment",similar to Inspector, where it is called "Slur/Tie". Maybe even drop the "Segment" part here as well as for some other elements, like Volta, Hairpin etc.
