By default, LilyPond sets the beat length in 6/8 time to one quaver (or eighth-note if you prefer), which is why you're getting the "orphaned" third beam. You can fix this by changing the beat length to 3/8: \set beatLength = #(ly:make-moment 3 8) Regards, Neil _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
