Re: Note shifting with multiple voices

[James E. Bailey]

Not that this solves your particular problem, but it seems pretty  
consistent to me: when the upper note falls on a line, it's to the  
left, when it's on a space, to the right. Probably because of the  
dot. Actually, it is because of the dot placement. If you change d8.  
to d8~ d16, they are all always on the left.
