Comment #2 on issue 2196 by address@hidden: collision of notehead and  
stems
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2196

Just for the benefit of anybody searching through bug reports to solve  
similar challenges, (1) Presumably there are other not-shown voices below,  
otherwise one voice could be the stem-down voiceTwo (2) Normally the outer  
voice, the 'a', is voiceOne and the inner notes voiceThree, in which case  
LilyPond puts the beam around the 'a' (avoiding collisions, but yucky) (3)  
the human in charge can decide it is best to move the note out of position  
and override as shown in the manual under force-hshift.

Regarding the request, the 'a' would shift right if it collided with  
another 'a' in voiceThree, so I am toying with the idea of shifting later  
voices fully out of the column of inner voices, when the voices cross into  
the reverse of their usual relative pitches.
