Hi Steve,
welcome to the group!
In your third measure, Instead of
g~1
you should write
g1~
Your sequence means the following:
- g without a duration uses the last duration specified, i.e. whole note
from the measure before.
- ~ produces a tie to the following note.
- 1 without a pitch produces a new note with the length specified and
the pitch repeated from the note before.
Cheers,
Klaus

New Lilypond user here. The following code is not working as I expect:
\version "2.24.0"
\language "english"
\score {
<<
\new Staff {
\key d \major
\time 4/4
\relative c' {
<d~ a'~>1 | <d a'>1 | g~1 | g2 <fs a>2 |
}
}
>>
\layout { }
}
I expect to see 4 measures with ties between measures 1 and 2, and then 3
and 4. Instead I am seeing 5 measures with an extra whole note in measure
4 tied to measure 3. (Image attached).
What am I doing wrong?
Version info:
LilyPond 2.24.0 (running Guile 2.2)
Frescobaldi Version 3.0.0
Linux Mint 20.3 (in a virtual machine if it matters).
Thanks!
