You should add an additional beaming rule: #(override-auto-beam-setting '(end 1 8 8 8) 5 8) Plus, as mentioned on http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=259 you'd better use the #(set-time-signature x x '(x x)) syntax instead of \time. > Does this qualify to be added to the compound-time snippet? > And if so, am I the one who's supposed to add it? You're welcome, the LSR is made for everyone :) However, perhaps you may want to expand only one of the two snippets on http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Search?q=measure+grouping and tell me to delete the other one. That's up to you. Cheers, Valentin _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
