Hi Steve
This section in the docs is rather confusing. I hope to try
to clarify it shortly.
The automatic behaviour should beam 16th notes in groups of
4, ie on crotchet beats, which is what you want, if I
understand you correctly, but beams over 8th notes end only
on half-note beats, ie on beats 2 and 4. You'd like them
also to end on beats 1 and 3. To do this you need to add:
#(override-auto-beam-setting '(end * * * * ) 1 4)
#(override-auto-beam-setting '(end * * * * ) 3 4)
These should cause any beam to terminate on beats 1 and 3,
in addition to terminating on beats 2 and 4 which happens by
default.
