Hi, I have problems getting autobeaming to work together with beam subdivision in 4/4 timing. I'm typesetting for the scottish snare drum and there are two requirements that need to be fulfilled,
* beams should always start and end on even quarters (and nowhere else), and * beams should be subdivided on eighths. These two seem impossible to achieve simultaneously. As soon as I set beamLength to 1/8, the beams start to break on eighths as well. Strangely it appears to work better in other timings. Below is a small example... if you comment out \set beatLength on line 15, you see that the auto beaming is working as it should, but with \set beatLength it breaks. What am I doing wrong? thanks! /Hugo ================================================= \version "2.10.33" % Header \header { title = "Quarter beams with subdivision, minimal test" tagline = ##f } myautobeams = { #(revert-auto-beam-setting '(end 1 32 4 4) 5 8) #(override-auto-beam-setting '(end * * 4 4) 1 4 'Voice) #(override-auto-beam-setting '(end * * 4 4) 1 2 'Voice) #(override-auto-beam-setting '(end * * 4 4) 3 4 'Voice) \set subdivideBeams = ##t \set beatLength = #(ly:make-moment 1 8) % Subdivide beams on eighths } % Music { %% Time \time 4/4 { %% Change auto beam behaviour \myautobeams %% First measure \partial 8 { d8:32( } \repeat volta 2 { d->) \times 2/3 {c16 d c} d8-> c16. d32-> c16. d32-> c d c d c8-> c } } } _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
