Subject: Grace Note Stem Length
Hello All,
I'm not sure if this is a bug or but I'll try here first. The length of the
beamed grace notes in this bar appear to be very elongated is this how they
are supposed to appear? Is there a way to shorten the stem length of the
beamed grace notes?
I've tried \override Beam #'beamed-stem-shorten = '(1.0 0.5 0.25)
as in the manual but the details for this function are unclear. I can't work
out what the list of numbers relate to. The description in the manual (see
below) doesn't
give enough information. Do you only put a number for each flag. ie. 2
numbers for two flags in this case.
======================
beamed-stem-shorten (list):
'(1.0 0.5 0.25)
How much to shorten beamed stems, when their direction is forced. It is a
list, since the value is different depending on the number flags/beams.
======================
BTW I've noticed that
Under the "TupletBracket" description #'bracket-visibility (to turn on and
off the appearance of the bracket) and #'staff-padding = ##f to allow the
tuplet numbers to enter the staff seem to be missing.
Any help with my other questions appreciated.
Regards,
Trent
