Hi Michiel
Chopin is notorious for this kind of notation, and you do seem to have found a
construction where Lily's standard approach fails to reproduce what Chopin
wanted. You can achieve the desired appearance with a bit of subterfuge and at
the expense of a warning with:
fixme-section = {
\voiceTwo
<<
{
\once \mergeDifferentlyHeadedOn
<<c'8 c,2*1/4[>> d8 e d]
}
\new Voice {
\voiceThree \once \omit Stem <c c'>2
}
>>
}
I'd like to see a cleaner solution though - this is really a last-resort hack.

Subject: Can't seem to merge note groups
Hi all,
I've been trying to solve a markup problem from a section of Chopin's Ballade
No.1, which I'm typesetting to teach myself Lilypond. It's going pretty well
but I'm having a problem with note merging. Here's an example of what I want -
http://i.imgur.com/c2ZzfUm.png - and here's a simplified version of what I have
so far - http://lilybin.com/64zsk1/3
I just can't seem to find out how to make this work, although it works just
fine when not using a note group (e.g. just c8 and c2 instead of <c c'>). For
example, the main theme also has a half note merged into eighth notes, and I
was able to get that working with this method.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. If the method is significantly
different from merging single notes, it might be good to have an example up in
the manual. I'd be willing to write up an example using the real music as
subject, if I can understand how this works.
