I've just returned to lilypond after a long time (version 2.0.1!) and have noticed in version 2.8.1 that the stem lengths seem to be a bit shorter, at least in the following example (from Telemann) :
\version "2.8.1" upper = \relative c'' { \clef treble \key bes \major \time 4/4 bes16 a bes c bes c a bes c bes c d c d bes c | d c d ees d ees c d ees d ees f ees f d ees | } lower = \relative c { \clef bass \key bes \major \time 4/4 bes8 d g f ees c f f, | bes bes' bes, bes' ees, es' ees, ees' | } \score { \new PianoStaff << \set PianoStaff.instrument = "Cembalo" \new Staff = "upper" \upper \new Staff = "lower" \lower >> \layout { } } In the output of 2.8.1, the stems of the semiquavers in the upper clef appear to be shorter than those in the output from 2.0.1 by about the height of a ledger line. Unfortunately, I don't have the original (2.0.1) code, but there was nothing unusual about it. Was this a conscious decision on the part of the developers or a by-product of some other changes?
