When I put a staccato dot and a slur on two notes of the same pitch, it gets played back as a single tied note, staccato, and the tie/slur goes closer to the notehead with the staccato dots farther away. I want it all reversed, a bowed staccato or grouped staccato, with both notes articulated and the first played slightly shorter in duration.

Suggestions on how to make this work? I made a new "line" notation with the dots attached to the slur line, but it does not function very well visually nor does it affect playback.
