That's an illegal merge, since it obscures the duration of the minim.
I believe this is a bug, but only of the documentation kind. Setting
'ignore-collision doesn't mean `Remove the annoying message so my
score compiles cleanly'; it switches off automatic collision
resolution between note columns. In Nick's example, setting
'ignore-collision allows the noteheads to be stuck on top of each
other with no regard for the individual durations: hence the quaver
obscures the minim. This means the merge commands are irrelevant,
since the merging code never gets called.
Cheers,
Neil
I'd guessed it was something of that sort. Since the warning about clashing
note columns is often seen, and the note-columns can be clashed deliberately
(e.g. to get the same note in 2 voices for slurs, etc.) is it worth
considering a command that simply turns the warning off?
