Rule
Gradus GE-362 · cite this code — it is permanent. Rule id tie-across-system-break-must-draw-both-halves
When a tie's second note falls on a new engraved system, professional engraving draws a partial tie curving off the right edge of the first system and picks up at the left edge of the next — never simply omitting the tie.
Gould ('Ties at the ends of systems') specifies the tie is drawn to the barline/edge on the first system; Ross and Read concur. Dorico and LilyPond both auto-split a system-crossing tie into two rendered curve segments.
This rule needs the notated content and the rendered result together — the score says what should happen, the page says whether it did.
