Hey Andrew, this might not help but did you try the technique in this
snippet?
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2012-03/msg00663.html
Just found this while looking around for people discussing slurs across
voices previously.
(pasted from url incase website is dead)
%%%% Snippet
\version "2.15.33" % also works with 2.23.10
\score {
\new Staff {
\time 2/4
<<
\new Voice {
\relative c'' {
\voiceOne
d16( c8. a16( g8.
}
}
\new Voice {
\relative c'' {
\voiceTwo
g8 g') c,,8 c'8)
}
}
>>
}
\layout {
\context {
\Voice
\remove "Slur_engraver"
\remove "Slur_performer"
}
\context {
\Staff
\consists "Slur_engraver"
\consists "Slur_performer"
}
}
}
%%%% End of snippet

I know that we can't natively make ties between notes in different

not be completed.
This is such a critical feature for keyboard music. When there are
hundreds of such ties in major pieces, it is just too tedious to do
all the workarounds with hidden notes and voices. I'm sorry to say
that I have switched to Dorico because of this significant
shortcoming, after having been a Lilypond user for a decade or more.
So, my question is this. Is the codebase just painted into a corner
that can't be gotten out of in this area due to architectural design
decisions? Are there any plans at all to develop this functionality in
the forseeable future?
