(No - not a bug:-) Maybe an inconveniency: Jay wrote a note telling me that there was a mistake here, it is a dotted eight tied to the next note which happens to look like a fermata. No bughunting needed. The example below will show the unwanted readability issue **only** if included in the very dense default-Lilypond-layout. See attachment: fermat-01-b9.png which is cut from the original rendering of Jay's music. %% bar 9 reads as follows: c 16 d 8. ~ d 16 es es es bes d d d a ges a bes So there is NO fermata on the second note here, only it looks as if there were. However, if there is a little more space around the notes the problem will disappear. See e.g. dotandtie.ly and dotandtie-x1.png (attached). (Only one bar, Lilypond uses more space). I a more dense environment (like Jay's original long sequence of music) Lilypond will, sometimes, try to write notes too close to each other. One could then specify e.g.: c16 d8. ~ \once \override Score.SeparationItem #'padding = #0.2 d16 es es es bes d d d a ges a bes | but I am not an authority on this.
