Subject: controlling the tie "gap" [and a possible bug?]
Hi all,

On my setup (Mac OS X, Lilypond 2.19.80), the code

\version "2.18.2"
\fixed c'' { e4*4/5( d c)( d e) }

gives


1. Is the crossing of the ties a bug?

2. Regardless, is there a way I can make all ties to begin a little bit further to the right and end a little further to the left of the centre of each notehead, so there is a gap between consecutive ties?

Thanks,
Kieren.
  
\version "2.19.80"

% I have to admit, I don't understand what this means musically.
% Seems like either this should be 2 slurs, not elided, or a single slur over all 5 notes.
\score {
    \new Staff <<
        \fixed c'' { e4*4/5( d c ) ( d e ) }
    >>
    \layout { }
}


%  Working with the confusing example as-is,
%  I'm not sure how to do this globally, but the normal \shape command can be made to work.
slurTweak = { \shape #'((0.3 . 0) (0 . 0) (0 . 0) (-0.3 . 0)) Slur }

\score {
    \new Staff <<
        \fixed c'' {
            %  The trick seems to be to add the second tweak before the first slur ends
            \slurTweak e4*4/5( d \slurTweak c ) ( d e )
        }
    >>
    \layout {
    }
}


HTH,
