Changing the "height" is not changed by the endpoints, but by the
controlpoints (or do I misunderstand you?).<br class="">
And changing the ctrlpoints of the slurs is possible. The code
snippet is in the below mentioned PDF under 17.)<br class="">
SetCustomOffset has a bit weird semantics: <br class="">
if it's the left segment, you must set it to false, if it's the
right segment, you must set it to true.<br class="">
