Hmm, I just realized that the inconsistency still exists, even with my patch. Here's an example: \relative c'' { a8 a a a a8 a a a a16 a a8 a a a8 a16 a a8 a a8 a a16 a a8 a8 a a a16 a % beaming is different } -Patrick _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
