Hi, Please have a look at the following example.
\version "2.21.0" % The accent and the dynamic collide in an ugly way. \new PianoStaff \with { \consists #Span_stem_engraver } << \new Staff { \stemUp e''8 } \new Staff { \stemUp \crossStaff { e''8->\f } } >> % This does not happen usually: { e''8_>\f } % Actually we can reduce the example even more, althought it % does no longer mean anything from the musical point of view. \new Staff { \stemUp \crossStaff { e''8->\f } } It seems that span stems confuse the algorithm that avoids vertical collisions.
