Re: Tie settings question

[Karol Majewski]

This is fine now. Thx, David.

I work really hard to make LilyPond ties look the way I want. My current 
settings are the following:

    \override Tie.details.height-limit = #1.25
    \override Tie.details.ratio = #0.25
    \override Tie.details.between-length-limit = #1
    \override Tie.details.wrong-direction-offset-penalty = #10
    \override Tie.details.min-length = #2
    \override Tie.details.min-length-penalty-factor = #30
    \override Tie.details.center-staff-line-clearance = #0.05
    \override Tie.details.tip-staff-line-clearance = #0.05
    \override Tie.details.staff-line-collision-penalty = #0
    \override Tie.details.dot-collision-clearance = #0
    \override Tie.details.dot-collision-penalty = #0
    \override Tie.details.note-head-gap = #0.15
    \override Tie.details.stem-gap = #0.15
    \override Tie.details.tie-column-monotonicity-penalty = #100
    \override Tie.details.tie-tie-collision-penalty = #25
    \override Tie.details.tie-tie-collision-distance = #0.5
    \override Tie.details.horizontal-distance-penalty-factor = #0
    \override Tie.details.same-dir-as-stem-penalty = #20
    \override Tie.details.vertical-distance-penalty-factor = #10
    \override Tie.details.intra-space-threshold = #0
    \override Tie.details.outer-tie-length-symmetry-penalty-factor = #0
    \override Tie.details.outer-tie-vertical-distance-symmetry-penalty-factor = 
#0
    \override Tie.details.outer-tie-vertical-gap = #0
    \override Tie.details.single-tie-region-size = #4
    \override Tie.details.skyline-padding = #0.05
    \override Tie.details.multi-tie-region-size = #1
    \override Tie.line-thickness = #0.25
    \override Tie.thickness = #2

I'm quite satisfied with those settings, but lately I discovered one situaton 
in which one of the ties looks not the way I want:

{
  \time 3/8 \voiceOne
  g'4~ g'8~
  g'4~ g'8~
  g'4.~
  g'4~ g'8
}

... and to my discontent the fifth tie is raised by 0.25 because of the dot. I 
don't want this dot to have any impact on the vertical position of the 
following tie. Overriding Tie.details.dot-collision-clearance doesn't help. How 
can I fix this? Of course using \shape is not an option, as I'm looking for 
general solution (global override). I begin to think that this is hardcoded....
