Hi,

I'm in the process of re-setting suites from Pierre Danican-Philidors op.1. Philidor is one of the few composers who mark exactly where a flattement, i.e. a finger vibrato, should be played. He does this with a wavy line over the corresponding notes.

This sign differs from "\prallprall". In addition, as can be seen in the example, it should be between the two notes.

Try something like this?

\version "2.24.1"

squiggleSlur =
\tweak stencil #ly:text-interface::print
\tweak text
  \markup
  \translate #'(0.4 . 3)
  \override #'(angularity . 0.8)
  \draw-squiggle-line #3.25 #'(6.5 . 0) ##t
\etc

\relative {
  \partial 4
  d''4\squiggleSlur(
  \once \set Staff.caesuraType = #'()
  \caesura^\upprall
  d4 d8) c16^+ b
}

Best,

Jean
