Hello again Andrew,
Yes, this is exactly what I do, even if I did not want to make my
snippet too complicated by introducing also the piano staff. You could
of course use four staves, but in real life often two staves are used
with two voices in each. Often however life is not that simple, there
are more than four voices: first and second soprano, first and second
alto etc. And it is in these cases the shown situation arises. Sometimes
e.g. second soprano is singing at the same pitch as first alto. In order
to make reading the notes as simple as possible one wants to have their
notes separated, and the initially described situation arises. So, why
can't I produce a note image like this (produced in GIMP, since I do not
know how to do it in LilyPond)?:

Hi Kaj,
Then why not use four voices for SATB, and two staves as per say a
standard vocal template, such as the example hymn template in the
Snippets section of the manual? All the dot clashes go away - which is
I suppose the advantage of the established way of setting such music
for SATB,
Andrew
