When I go from a divisi voice with the same note in both voices to unison (also with the same note) and I try to enter a tie in the divisi voice towards the unison, the tie is only drawn in the upper voice.
Even if I start my unison 1 bar earlier I only get some kind of a laissez-vibré tie, but not a whole nice tie.
and the bad thing:
if I do it like this
and I try to draw the tie in the second voice, the tie in the first voice is also affected - so I can’t even start my unsion 1 bar earlier cause then I get in real trouble trying to draw ties in both voices which look the same.
Is this sth you guys from Dorico still have to improve or am I doing sth wrong here?
Thanx
This is indeed something that we still need to improve. There are a variety of rough edges around the transition to and from unison when working with divisi that we still have to solve. I’m sorry for the inconvenience caused.

No problem. There will be some kind of a workaround 
Knowing a bit now how you work, I’m 100% sure will all be fine sooner or later.
Thanx for the answer Daniel.
Has there been found a solution in the meantime? I still wonder how to handle the switch to unison in the example attached. In some places I could enter a graphic tie, but how to get rid of the short ties which should be extended? Editing them will result in editing also the source ties which are correct.
This seems to have been fixed in 5.1. Have you updated?

Oh, incredible, Dorico is keeping up with my needs! 
- Thank you for the hint!
However there remains a little issue which I solved by inserting a manual tie as an expression - I wonder if there would be a better solution:
If I merge two voices/two divisi parts into one staff across a page break (but maintaining the 2 voices there!) this will not yield two ties. Any ideas apart from inserting a manual sign/symbol?
