Subject: Cross-staff beaming


I've just installed 2.13.61 (Windoze binary)

I'm working on a piece with a lot of cross-staff arpeggios, many of which need their stem lengths/beam positions tweaked for easier reading. The manualBeam function in the manual

manualBeam =
#(define-music-function (parser location beg-end)
  (pair?)
  #{
  \once \override Beam #'positions = #$beg-end
  #})

works perfectly for a few bars, after this the beams and stems of the beamed note groups are AFAICT rendered inverted top-to-bottom.

A recent bug-lilypond thread suggested that some work had recently been done on the cross-staff beaming code. Is this still on the to-do list, or am I missing something? (A workaround?)


There are at least 3 beaming bugs still present in .61, which are claimed fixed for .62. I'd suggest trying your music with .62 when it is released, and raising a problem again if it doesn't fix your problem.
