Tie objects are created by: Completion_heads_engraver and Tie_engraver

Standard settings:

print-function (procedure):
Tie::print

Function taking grob as argument, returning a Stencil object.

spacing-procedure (procedure):
Spanner::set_spacing_rods

Procedure for calculating spacing parameters. The routine is called after before-line-breaking-callback.

staffline-clearance (dimension, in staff space):
0.35

How far away ties keep from staff lines.

thickness (number):
1.2

Bar line thickness, measured in linethickness.

x-gap (dimension, in staff space):
-0.1

The horizontal gap between note head and tie.

y-offset (dimension, in staff space):
0.6

Extra vertical offset for ties away from the center line.

minimum-length (dimension, in staff space):
2.5

Try to make a spanner at least this long. This requires an appropriate routine for the spacing-procedure property.

This object supports the following interfaces: spanner-interface, tie-interface and grob-interface
