Text answer: when there is a bar between the two glissando notes, the Glissando.ms object needs to be immediately after the first note (before the bar).

Also note in @Rick G.'s example that he set the Class to Span. This will allow the glissandos to correctly span if they cross a system break.

Thank you, gentlemen.

It's looking good now, but I am now trying to fix the bump at the end of the slide. Am trying to adapt Fred Nachbaur's gliss.nwc on Scriptorium and Rick's example for this, but something happens at the end.

TIA

Gosh! Why so complicated?
Maybe something like this...

The last note in m. 4 is a C#, but it sounded like it went up to an E.
Thanks for looking at it.
