Won't work, hence the elaborate code. From the Notation Reference (http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.20/Documentation/notation/modifying-shapes.en.html#modifying-ties-and-slurs): "Known issues and warnings It is not possible to modify shapes of ties or slurs by changing the control-points property if there are multiple ties or slurs at the same musical moment – the \tweak command will also not work in this case. However, the tie-configuration property of TieColumn can be overridden to set start line and direction as required." DN
