@code{tieWaitForNote} property to true. The same feature is also useful,
for example, to tie a tremolo to a chord. For example,
-@lilypond[fragment,verbatim,relative=1,ragged-right]
+@lilypond[fragment,verbatim,relative=1,ragged-right,quote]
\set tieWaitForNote = ##t
\grace { c16[~ e~ g]~ } <c, e g>2
\repeat "tremolo" 8 { c32~ c'~ } <c c,>1
e8~ c~ a~ f~ <e' c a f>2
@end lilypond
+Ties may be engraved manually by changing the @code{tie-configuration}
+property. The first number indicates the distance from the center
+of the staff in staff-spaces, and the second number indicates the
+direction (1=up, -1=down).
