> lilypond-user@ > https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user Did you solve this? I cannot find anywhere in documentation an exact information about how to explicitly tell lilypond how many beats should be in a group of feather beamed notes. Like you say 1 eighth note what about a dotted quarter or a half note. No idea how to force the duration of feathers to be X beats in order for bar check success.
