Hi Carl, LilyPond users, In the doc NR 1.2.4 Beams > Setting automatic beam behavior (latest version: 2.13.44) under "How automatic beaming works", third point, it is said:
• if a beam-ending rule is defined in beamExceptions for a longer beam-type, use it to determined the valid places where beams may end, otherwise [...] This is _not_ true for default beaming (i.e. 4/4), right? In 4/4, there is a beamExceptions for 8th notes that combines beats 1,2 and 3,4, but this does not affect beaming rules for shorter beam-types (16th, ...) that are beamed according to beamMoment (1 . 4) . How is it possible? I ask this because we have a request on the French user mailing list to beam *in 2/4* 8th by 4 but without affecting shorter beam-types. And of course in this case if I use \time 2/4 \set Timing.beamExceptions = #'( (end . ( ((1 . 8) . (4)) ))) then the beaming of shorter notes is determined by this and that's not what is wanted! (only 8th note should be beamed by measure, not shorter notes that should be beamed according to beamMoment (1 . 4) like in 4/4?!) If you have another better solution to handle this situation, feel free!
