I do understand what are the pitfals from following rules, where they can be subjective, where they can be useless and all that. But my problem started in a very simpler way before becoming a discussion of such size. In the beginning, I basically wrote that "I believe that I found certain behaviors from LilyPond that seem to: a) go against what at least one source states, b) go against most (or all) of my other scores, c) I subjectively find a bit ugly". This is true to my discussion here concerning the spacing between clef/time signature and the first note, and also the other discussion (in a different post) about bar number positions. Regardless of that, I really hope I didn't gave the impression I want to force people to change certain things on LilyPond only because of what I think. I already exposed my thoughts, and that is all. People are invited to discuss, agree or disagree with me, and I am happy with any of those. In this particular subject, my views seem to be part of a minority here, which is totally fair. So I will happily leave things as they are and continue to simply use my tweaks and overrides as I usually do. Take care and thanks for all your replies, Gilberto -- View this message in context: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/Beam-positions-and-time-signature-spacing-tp153538p153770.html Sent from the User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
