I have looked at them, but unfortunately I would need one of those automagical ways (I am dealing with algorithmic music and I manually tweaking isn't an option for me). What surprises me about the default look is how confusing it actually is! At a glance it's very difficult to tell how many beams a note actually have. On top of that, I also never seen that kind of notation before, to be frank. Below is a one more example of a complex kneed beam division. Note how the main beam (in this case the bottom one, as the first note has a stem down) is always in the bottom of the group: <http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/file/n184345/lily2.jpg> -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Kneed-beams-and-changes-of-staff-tp184339p184345.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
