I second that. Especially in chords, short ties are moved too much vertically from the `correct' place. IMHO, this: --___-------------___--- / \ _____ / \ \___/ / \ \___/ ------------------------ looks *really* bad. A tie, regardless of being short or long, must not be placed completely between two staff lines if the notes are also between the same two lines. For further references I suggest that you take a Henle or UE edition of Beethoven's piano sonatas (the later ones).
