Hi all,
In the following construction:
<d a'>2 ~<cis a'> ~ {<< \stemDown<d a'> \\ \stemUp {d'4 cis}>>}
the second "tilde" seems to have no effect. I want to tie the 'a' in
the second chord to the 'a' in the third chord in the parallel bar.
Am I missing something? How do I tie such a thing through this
construction? Everything else about this line seems to work properly.
You can't have ties or slurs going between notes in different voices. I
frequently encounter this problem when setting guitar music, which
commonly has multiple voices on a single staff. I get around it by using
an additional voice with hidden notes and duplicating the tied/slurred
notes in this voice with the ties/slurs moved there. I would estimate
that at least half of the several dozen guitar scores I have set with
Lilypond have needed this workaround.
