Lilypond is satisfying the requirements you have provided, either via explicit breaks (see your examples) or system-count (see example, below) or by offering nothing (in which case, Lilypond applies its default spacing algorithm): \version "2.19.82" \layout { system-count = 4 } \new Staff \relative c' { \override Beam.grow-direction = #LEFT \featherDurations #(ly:make-moment 7/1) {c32[ d e f g f g f]} c4 c c | \revert Beam.grow-direction c4 e d c c1 d e c c c c c c c c } If you want different spacing, tell Lilypond how you want it spaced. =) Cheers, Kieren. ________________________________ Kieren MacMillan, composer ‣ website: www.kierenmacmillan.info ‣ email: i...@kierenmacmillan.info _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
