Sounds a bit like a glissando. ;) There are lots of interesting Tie 'details in scm/define-grobs.scm which you might find useful; for example, overriding 'height-limit will flatten a tie: \override Tie #'(details heigh-limit) = #0 This is a bit lozenge-shaped, but I don't think you'll get a perfectly straight line since ties are made from two bezier curves sandwiched together.
