Hi,

the Learning Manual 3.2.2 "Explicitly instantiating voices" says:

"By default, the outer voices (normally voices one and two) have \shiftOff
specified, while the inner voices (three and four) have \shiftOn specified.
When a shift is applied, voices one and three are shifted to the right and
voices two and four to the left."

So I tried this using three and four voices:

\version "2.14.1"
one = {
        \relative c {
                \clef bass
                a'1 ^~ a g
        }
}
two = {
        \relative c {
                \clef bass
                s1 
        \once \override NoteColumn #'force-hshift = #0.5 
                e2
        \once \override Tie #'Y-offset = #'1.2
                f^~ f e
        }
}
three = {
        \relative c {
                \clef bass
        \override NoteColumn #'force-hshift = #0
                c1~ c c
        }
} 
four = {
        \relative c {
                \clef bass
                f,1~ f c
        }
}
%merging three and four
five = {
        \relative c {
                \clef bass
                <c f,>1 ~ <c f,> <c c,>
        }
} 

\score {
   \new Staff 
     <<
       \new Voice {\voiceOne \one }
       \new Voice {\voiceThree\two }
       \new Voice {\voiceFour\three }
       \new Voice {\voiceTwo\four }
     >>
} 

\score {
   \new Staff 
     <<
       \new Voice {\voiceOne \one }
       \new Voice {\voiceThree\two }
       \new Voice {\voiceTwo\five }
     >>
} 

Seems to work.

Regards,
  Harm
