While playing around with tie settings I discovered that putting in a
dummy override and copying one of the values from the 'details list
will make the "flying tie" problem disappear:
\version "2.15.36"
\paper {
#(set-paper-size "a7")
}
musicA = \relative a' {
\key des \major
<a d f>1~^"default" \break
q1
}
musicB = \relative a' {
\key des \major
\override Tie #'details = #'((ratio . 0.333))
<a d f>1~^"dummy override" \break
q1
}
\score {
\new Staff {
\musicA \break \musicB
}
}
Not sure what this means for the squashing of the bug, but it's
a workaround at least.
