Try the following code (adjust the number for 'minimum-length to fit your needs)
Some comments inline.
\version "2.16.2"
\relative c' {
\override Glissando #'minimum-length = #10
%% overriding Glissando 'minimum-length needs
%% the following additional override
\override Glissando #'springs-and-rods = #ly:spanner::set-spacing-rods
%% You may want to override 'extra-dy as well:
\once \override Glissando #'extra-dy = #-0.5
\times 2/3 { dis'8\glissando[ d( c)] }
\once \override Glissando #'extra-dy = #-0.5
\times 2/3 { cis8\glissando[ c( b)] }
}
HTH,
Harm
