Making an object invisible with the ’transparent property
Setting the transparent property will cause an object to be printed in “invisible ink”: the
object is not printed, but all its other behavior is retained. The object still takes up space, it
takes part in collisions, and slurs, ties and beams can be attached to it.
This snippet demonstrates how to connect different voices using ties. Normally, ties only
connect two notes in the same voice. By introducing a tie in a different voice, and blanking the
first up-stem in that voice, the tie appears to cross voices.
