Hello Ming, here’s the best I could come up with. I remember that in hand-engraved scores, this is resolved by shifting the two notes further apart and placing the dots close to each one, which I now mimicked, albeit very poorly: the dot placement looks very odd now. Perhaps you’ll want to fi

Another thought, which is a musical solution rather than a lilypond tweak. You can use an equivalent time signature that may make it preferable in terms of readability. 12/8 is logically 4/4 (at a different tempo) and you use triplets. This can be easier one the eyes instead of all those dots.

I am not convinced the dots look awful. It’s perfectly legible to me - just highly dotted notation. What do you mean by awful, exactly? Andrew On 26 March 2015 at 10:29:06, MING TSANG (tsan...@rogers.com) wrote: Lilyponders: how to solve the dots after notehead and tie collides.  1.  tie colli
