Hi Kieren, Simon, Pierre, Abraham & everyone,

Just a follow up that using \repeatTie does definitely accomplish what I
was looking for; I have it integrated into the score now and it's working
in all configurations.

A remaining question: I'm guessing there's not a way to lengthen
repeat-ties? (Hence why Pierre demoed the work-around of hiding preceding
grace notes?)

I tried messing with the X-extent of the LaissezVibrerTieColumn grob ...

\new Staff \with {
    \override LaissezVibrerTieColumn #'X-extent = #'(-3 . 3)
} {
    c'2
    c'2 \repeatTie
    c'2 \repeatTie
    c'2 \repeatTie
}

... but apparently to no avail.

If anyone has magic available to lengthen repeat-ties, that would be
awesome.

(If no magic is available then I think the players will still know what's
going on: the symbols aren't as obvious on the page when you first start to
read them (as compared to Messiaen's), but I printed out a page and sat it
on a stand and I think they will be noticeable enough to work in
performance.)


Trevor.
