It looks even funnier at lower resolution, somewhat better when viewed up close. I'm aware of \override TieColumn #'tie-configuration but would just as soon avoid it if possible. +++++++++++++++++++++++ See embedded comments:- \version "2.14.1" \include "english.ly" \score { \new Staff { \key d \major \numericTimeSignature \time 4/4 r4 \times 4/5 { <cs' d'' b''>16\< <cs' d'' b''><cs' d'' b''><cs' d'' b''><cs' d'' b''>~ } <cs' d'' b''> <cs' d'' b''>8~ %moving the dot from here..... <cs' d'' b''>8. % ... to here makes the tie pretty...
