I’m pretty sure tie shapes can be customized.  Maybe take a look at this 
snippet, although it is for slurs:

http://lsr.di.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=777

Or the other snippets that come up with an LSR search for “shape”.

Maybe that helps,

Piano_Tab Notation; Tie customization

[Philip Bergwerf]

Hello everyone,

I am developing a alternative notation method. Piano_Tab Notation.
(http://www.ambrosepianotabs.com/) Its like you are reading a piano roll
editor with traditional rhytmic notation. This is a variation to the ambrose
pianotab. I dont want to work with colors so i made a system with thick
striped lines on the central c sharp and d sharp.

I dont like the rhytmic notation. Because this notation has one staff you
can use only 2 voices. Otherwise it will look unclear. Well when writing
this: 
4    1 \bar "|."
on a Piano_Tab staff you can read what's written but it is very unusual. In
traditional notation you can write 2 different voices in the upper staff and
in this case i have one voice for one hand. so i was thinking about tweaking
the ties. Is it possible in lilypond to make a horizontal straight line
between tied notes? This is what i made:

BEGIN CODE
\version "2.16.2"
%Piano_Tab template
\language "nederlands"
\header {
 title = "Piano_Tab example"
 composer = "composer"
}

PtStaff =\relative c'' 
{<<{ 
 %v1
 4    1 \bar "|."
   }\\{
 %v2
 
}>>}

\score {
  \new PianoStaff \with {
staffLineLayoutFunction = #ly:pitch-semitones
middleCPosition = #-6
clefGlyph = #"clefs.G"
clefPosition = #(+ -6 7)
  }{
\override Staff.StaffSymbol #'line-positions = #'(21 19 16 14 12 9 7 4 
   2 0 -2.8 -3 -3.2 -4.8
-5 -5.2 -8 -10 -12 -15 -17 -20 -22 -24 -27 -29)\time 4/4 << \PtStaff >>}
  \layout {
\context {
  \Staff
  \remove "Accidental_engraver"
  \remove "Key_engraver"
  \remove "Clef_engraver"
}
  }
}
END CODE

Cheers Philip Bergwerf
