Ah, I see the problem!
I hadn’t seen the “Voice Column Index” parameter (in the “Notes and Rests” section of the Properties window). I was editing “Voice column spacing offset” in the “Note Spacing” section.
Now I got it.
Two problems, though:
-
The fix applied only to the score. I had to do it separately on the part.
-
Adding the L.V. tie flipped the regular tie, and, when I flipped the regular tie back down, it was lower than the subsequent ties, requiring more tweaking. (Maybe the L.V. tie was somehow “pushing” it down.)
All’s well now, though.
I hope the team implements a fix for this soon. I agree, it’s a pain.
Thanks again for the help. Much appreciated.
