Hoping someone can help me on this, as I have not found any way to fix this 
problem, despite trying all sorts of things and searching for anything similar. 
I have some polyphonic music where some double ties are crashing with notes in 
another voice. It looks like this:



The relevant code looks like this:

        <cis! e>1~ |
        <cis! e>1~ \< |

I figured it would be no problem to fix this by tweaking the shape of ties, 
like so:

        <cis! e>1-\shape #'((0 . 0.5) (0 . 2) (0 . 2) (0 . 0))~ |
        <cis! e>1-\shape #'((0 . 0.5) (0 . 2) (0 . 2) (0 . 0))~ \< |

But that results in this:


Only the upper tie is reshaped and the bottom stays the same.

I’ve tried all sorts of workarounds. The most promising one was instantiating a 
separate voice for the top and bottom of the chord, but that led to other 
problems with collisions between the moving voice and the whole notes, and 
tweaking the horizontal position of the clashing c-natural has no effect when 
I’ve got this split into different voices for some reason. I also tried 
creating a new voice with transparent note heads in it and the ties attached to 
them, but that led to truly bizarre behaviors with spacing.

So is there a way to tweak the bottom tie and get this working right?

Best,

Arle
