If you want detailed control over ties or LaissezVibrer ties you can use the property #'control-points though it is kind of tricky and not very well documented. It takes a list of four number pairs as its argument #'((x . y) (x . y) (x . y) (x . y)
These coordinates are the control points of the tie (beginning, before middle, after middle, end). With this you can actually draw some pretty wild shapes! %%%%%% begin snippet \version "2.9.11" \score { << \new Staff \relative c' { c4 \laissezVibrer s4*3 | \once \override LaissezVibrerTie #'control-points = #'((0.75 . -4) (2 . -4.5) (4 . -4.5) (6 . -4)) c4 \laissezVibrer s4*3 | s4*4 | } >> } \paper { ragged-right = ##t } %%%%%% end snippet /henrik _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
