And here's the code corresponding to the previous image.
\version "2.17.10"
\header { texidoc = "
A tie must have a minimum length. The example below
shows that lilypond fails to handle that sometimes.
" }
\paper {
ragged-right = ##t
}
\relative c' {
d4 ~ d
<d a' b d> ~ <d a' b d>
\override Tie.minimum-length = #2
d ~ d
<d a' b d> ~ <d a' b d>
\override Tie.minimum-length = #4
d ~ d
<d a' b d> ~ <d a' b d>
\override Tie.minimum-length = #6
d ~ d
<d a' b d> ~ <d a' b d>
\override Tie.minimum-length = #8
d ~ d
<d a' b d> ~ <d a' b d>
}
