slur direction

Though I'm not a music theory expert, it would seem to me that the slur here would be better going up.

Is there a way to do that?
One ABC reference seems to indicate that an apostrophe can be used to force the direction, but that doesn't work...

I'm using abcjs-basic v6.2.2

I think, according to Gould, the slur is in the right direction but it should be outside the beam. The rules are complicated, which is why you are finding a lot of odd cases. If I can fix this particular case quickly I'll squeeze it into the next minor release.

Would love to have the slur placement fixed as it will make our scores look much better; I recognize the programming for that is likely quite complicated.
