You did not give a minimal example, you did not specify the meter, you did not give enough context to determine the system your reference is working with: whether it is beaming eighths per quarter generally, whether it is beaming to the text, whether it is following baroque conventions and so forth and so on. This is not a "phylosophical question", it is a mixture between vague handwaving and complaining without enough substance to figure out what this is about. All of the possibilities have different answers. You will find a whole lot of them explained in the manual, however. Check <http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/beams> and its subchapters. Also if you have \autoBeamOff, I believe that beaming will follow the lyrics of lyrics that have the corresponding music as associated context, according to baroque conventions. I don't see anything in the manuals at first glance so I might have gotten the details of that one wrong. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
