Re: Override ties

[Ed Gordijn]

Hi Harm,

I my case this works even better then tweaking the control points! Sorry 
Urs! Am I right is this not yet documented?

I tried to make a music function and that didn't work. Do you know why not?

\version "2.15.14"

squeezeTie = #(define-music-function (parser location gap) (number?)
#{
    \override Tie #'details = #'((note-head-gap . $gap )       ;; 
default: 0.2
                                 (outer-tie-vertical-gap . 0))  % 
default: 0.25
#})

rsqueezeTie = \revert Tie #'details

\relative a' {
  \squeezeTie #0.6
  a8  a~---> a a   a a~---> a a
  \rsqueezeTie
}

Greetings, Ed
