Change beam grouping
Hi list. This is probably in the manual, but I can't find it so I'm asking you all. In a sequence like { b16. b32 b32 b16. } the default is to have a beam that connects the two shortest notes, like the first bar in the attached image. I want the beaming so it always makes a beamlet point towards the corresponding dotted note, as in the second bar of the image. How can I set it up so this happens automatically, both in 8. 16 and in 16. 32 groups?

Change beam grouping
Hi list. I asked this very question way back in 2011. Time to raise it again, maybe there is a way to do it now.

That's where I figured out how to produce the example by manipulating the stemLeftBeamCount and stemRightBeamCount properties. But I need it done automatically and it is not clear (at least to me) how to do that. -- Sven Axelsson ++[>++>+++>++>++ ><-]>.+..>+.>+.<<-.>>+.>.<<. +++.>-.<<++.>>.<++.>>>++..>>.<. -- Sven Axelsson ++[>++>+++>++>++ ><-]>.+..>+.>+.<<-.>>+.>.<<. +++.>-.<<++.>>.<++.>>>++..>>.<. ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

At the present time, there are no user-settable rules for determining beamlet direction. I believe that the outcome in measure 2 should be always preferred. I've been trying to improve the algorithm for doing this, but it's not yet perfect. Unfortunately, due to some health issues in my family I have very little LilyPond time right now. Please post this as a bug; I'll try to fix it in the near future. Thanks, Carl ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

The result is not exactly the same. With subdivideBeams you have only one beam in the middle between the two rhythms, whereas there are "two beams" (16th notes) in the image sent by Sven. I would be interested to know if it is possible to get Sven's result with LilyPond's automatic beaming rules. Maybe Carl (who is the master of beaming) could give an answer?
