That sounds good to me, Han-Wen. The \tweak would affect only the note immediately after it, right? (like \once \override ?) If a piece has lots of partially tied chords, a person could define a macro at the top of his or her piece to diminish the amount of typing: \notie = \tweak #'forbid-tie = ##t <c \notie e \notie g bes>4~ <c e g bes> I will be happy to sponsor this. I can pay now via PayPal or later after the invoice.
