Howdy! For some reason lilypond ( 2.18.0) doesn't get this correct straight out of the box, though there is lots of room for slightly shorter stems... shouldn't need to move the note column...

Using this thing will lengthen stems but not shorten them \once \override Stem.details.beamed-lengths = #'(7) \once \override Stem.details.beamed-lengths = #'(2) Code below.. thanx - steve ***************** \version "2.18.0" \paper { } \header { } #(set-global-staff-size 19) first = \relative c' { \set Staff.instrumentName = "Guitar " \set Staff.connectArpeggios = ##t \key e \major \tempo "Allegretto" \tuplet 3/2 { e16([ fis e) } d8]~ d8~ | } second = \relative c' { \once \override Stem.details.beamed-lengths = #'(1) < g b >8 < g b > < g b > | } third = { } fourth = \relative c { g4. } guitar = << \first \\ \second \\ \third \\ \fourth >> global = { \clef "G_8" \time 3/8 \set harmonicDots = ##t \set Staff.connectArpeggios = ##t } \score { \new StaffGroup \with { \consists "Span_arpeggio_engraver" \override StaffGrouper #'staff-staff-spacing = #'((basic-distance . 12) (minimum-distance . 8) (padding . 2)) } << \global \guitar >> \layout { } } _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
