I find that sometimes the notes looks clumsy. I think the length of
the stem is too short as in this example:
\version "2.16"
\score { \relative c { \clef bass

\times 4/6 { a g f c f, c' } r2 |
}
}
I would like the stem length as in this example:
\score { \relative c { \clef bass
\once \override Beam #'positions = #'(2 . 3)
\times 4/6 { f,16 c f g a c }
\once \override Beam #'positions = #'(2.5 . 1.5)
\times 4/6 { a g f c f, c' } r2 |
}
}
I am reluctant to splatter this overrides all over the score. Can I
set this somehow with a general?
This does approximately what you want:
\score { \relative c { \clef bass
\override Stem.length-fraction = #(magstep 3)
\times 4/6 { f,16 c f g a c }
\times 4/6 { a g f c f, c' } r2 |
}
}
Ok, so I don't have to try the position values for the individual beams.
That's an improvement. But when I set this globally it gives a bad look
at other notes. It looks like that the reason for this behavior is that
Lilypond tries to set the center of all beam lines at a specific point.
Only when the distance between the note head a the closest line is less
a minimum the beam is move a bit away.
You can see this in this example (measures 2 and 4). Without the changed
length-fraction the middle of the beam has always the same Y-position.
\score {
\relative c {
\clef bass
c8 e c e
c16 e c e c e c e |
c8 e c e
c32 e c e c e c e c e c e c e c e
\override Stem #'length-fraction = #(magstep 3)
c8 e c e
c16 e c e c e c e |
c8 e c e
c32 e c e c e c e c e c e c e c e
}
}
I am looking for a way to get a larger minimum but keep the length of
the stem in general. Unfortunately I found nothing to overwrite at
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/internals/stem as well as I
didn't find magstep there.
