Ties (and slurs) are arranged obliquely by automatic placement, when multiple voices (or chords) are used in a staff.
Examples are given in the attached file and it can be reproduced as follows:
1) Enter two notes to be tied.

2) Tie the notes (e.g. press + key)

3) Add notes for a second voice or add a chord to one of the two tied notes:

(This works similarly with slurs, but apparently only when bar lines are exceeded and the note values of the slurred notes differ)

Most likely caused by my change to fix cross-staff ties. There was formerly code to force the start and end points to the same height, I took that out. This also helped enharmonic ties (eg, A# to Bb) but hurt stem-side ties. Should be a simple fix.
