Re: more on polyphonic tablature - sharing notes

[Art Sulger]

No one? seems like a common scoring problem for lutists or anyone writing 
polyphonic tab.
Anyway - can someone give me advice on if this can be set in TabVoices: 
merge-differently-headed (boolean); 
the docs say,
    "Merge note heads in collisions, even if they have different note heads. 
The smaller of the two heads will be rendered invisible. This used polyphonic 
guitar notation. The value of this setting is used by 
note-collision-interface ."
