Hi Holland, When stems are beamed their lengths are controlled by the Beam's 'positions property, so something like
\once \override Beam.positions = #'(-5 . -5) before the first beamed note will change the length of the stems (choose the values you want). hth, Kevin On Fri, Mar 20, 2015 at 4:21 PM, holl...@hollandhopson.com < holl...@hollandhopson.com> wrote: > I’m working on some banjo tablature and I’d like to change the stem length > for beamed stems when 2 non-adjacent strings are played together.
