Somewhat surprising result, tested on 2.24 & 2.25.11:
|```
\version "2.24"
\fixed c' {
<c e g(>2
<d f a)> |
<c e g(>2.
<d f a)>4 |
<c e g~>2 q |
<c e g~>2. q4 |
}
```|
In the second instance, the tie attaches to the bottom of the initial
chord, presumably to avoid colliding with the dot. (Interestingly, as in
examples 3 & 4, a tie will happily display overlapping the dot.)
Obvious searches (like [lilypond chord slur dotted note]
<https://www.google.com/search?q=lilypond+chord+slur+dotted+note>) do
not turn up mention of this, or of any tweak to avoid this. Any hints?
