ngExceptions setting, I find that these are now beamed as | [c c c] r | and | r [c c c] |.  I would perhaps, though, want them to appear as | [c c] c r | and | r c c[ c] | (i.e. without a beam crossing the middle of the bar). Is there a way to get this result with automatic beaming and still keep my new [c c c c] beaming, or would it have to be done with manual beams?   David Sumbler

Hi, Based on the recent discussions on automatic beaming, I got an idea on a possible improvement/simplification. Currently, a setting like #(override-auto-beam-setting '(end 1 16 4 4) 1 4) means that beams are ended on the first beat if the beamed notes are 16th notes. What if we change

Note that you don't get any beam in the following example either (for the same reason): \score{ \relative c'{c8 d e} } Since the default beaming rules say that 8th notes should be beamed together 4 and 4 in common time, you could rather say that it's an inconsequence that \score{ \relative c'{

2006-10-07 Thread Michael Kiermaier
In lilypond 2.8.6 this input { << {c''8 d''8 c''8} \\ {r4.} >> r8 r2 } gives three eighth notes with seperated flags (i.e. without a beam). In my opinion, that is a bug. In contrast, the slightly modified input { << {c''8 d''8 c''8 r} \\ {r2} >> r2 } produces a beam. ~michael ___
