Hello! I'm having a bit of trouble trying to replicate this behaviour with
string bending and ties:
[image: GuitarProStringBends]
A bit of context: I'm a long time GuitarPro user and now I am fully
migrating to lilypond. For the last 4 to 5 years I was only writing
standard sheet music and lead sheets; now I'm rewriting all my
tablature-based songs created in GP to Lilypond.
However, I still cannot find a way to replicate the behaviour mentioned
above. All that I can do is this:

I'm accustomed to seeing the stem displayed by the staff. In the way that
lilypond is outputting I cannot visualize correctly the beat structure of
the measure.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!
I'll be annexing the .ly file and pasting the code.
Best regards,
Lucas
