Option for ties to avoid staff lines

Your idea

I would like a Tie style setting that automatically adjusts outer-placement ties, so that their curves appear in the center of a staff space. This would also apply to downward ties on the first ledger line above and upward ties on the first ledger line down. The goal would be that the center of no tie would ever closely coincide with a staff line.

Problem to be solved

Consider the following examples from MuseScore 4.4.2 (treble clef):

The tie on the A in the first chord coincides with a staff line, as do the ties on the C in the second and the G and D in the fourth. All of these would look better if they were about 0.5sp further from their noteheads.

It looks like inner placement of ties is already taking into account whether the notehead is on a line or a space. We need a similar option for outer placement.

Prior art

I accomplished this in Finale with a plugin, but it was not an ideal solution. A built-in solution would be better.

Additional context

This request is related to #20539, but I'm not sure whether that issue is still relevant for 4.4. (Doesn't the "Auto" setting resolve it?)

• I have verified that this feature request has not been logged before, by searching the issue tracker for similar requests

Start by reviewing the tie style and outer-placement behavior described in the issue, then compare it with related issue #20539 and the existing Auto setting. Confirm how ties on staff lines and nearby ledger lines are currently handled. Done means a built-in option keeps outer tie centers away from staff lines as described, including the listed ledger-line cases.
