    Hi Wonderful Lilypond coders,

    I obviously don't understand voices well enough:

    How can I get the tie and the slur to work in this example?:

    \version "2.25.25"

    \fixed c' {
       \voiceTwo { g1( f~1~ } << { f2.~8 r } \\ { 8) r r4 r2 } >> \break
       g1( f~1~ << { 8) r r4 r2 } \\ { f2.~8 r } >>
    }

    I hope the placement of the ties and slur in the example make the
    intention clear,


What you need instead of the << { } \\ { } >> construct is << { } \new Voice { } >>.  The second form keeps the current context going in the first set of braces.

%%%
\version "2.25.25"

\fixed c' {
  \voiceTwo g1( f~1~
  << { 8) r r4 r2 } \new Voice { \voiceOne f2.~8 r } >> \break
  \voiceOne g1( f~1~
  << { 8) r r4 r2 } \new Voice { \voiceTwo f2.~8 r } >>
}
%%%
