Are there settings to control the position and the minimum tie length at the beginning o a system?

I only found this (about Engraving Options of ties):
Ties across system/frame breaks
The ends of ties that cross system/frame breaks are automatically positioned in Dorico Pro.
Their vertical position remains the same, as both ends are centered on the noteheads to which they are attached. Their behavior also remains the same, as selecting one note in a tie chain that crosses a system/frame break in Write mode selects all notes in the tie chain.
The horizontal space for the parts of ties shown to the left of notes at the start of new systems/frames may not be sufficient to show an ideal tie curve. In such cases, you can use Note Spacing [image] in Engrave mode to adjust the spacing of individual notes at the start of systems/frames to give ties more space.

The only setting I found related to the minimum length is “Minimum length for ties between notes”, which doesn’t affect the cross-system ties.
Couldn’t find anything to allow nesting over key and time signatures.
Here’re examples of nested slurs and ties from Peters:
@SugarFree
You surely mean global settings? (Because you probably know that in Engrave mode you can locally edit the ties very flexibly)
Yes, global settings. My initial example used manual edits.
… I like how the slur cuts through the fingering in your second example.
