The stem length of beamed notes is controlled by a
so-called subproperty of the Stem object. See
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/The-override-command#The-override-command
for an example of how to do exactly this setting and
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user
You can explicitly set the positions of the left- and right-hand ends of the
beam. E.g.
\relative c'' {
\once\override Beam #'positions = #'(5.5 . 6.5) c16 b a g
}
There's a snippet in the documentation on manually controlling beam
positions.

Hi,
I want to change the length of a stem. I know how to do it but not when multiple
notes are beamed together, e.g. 4 16th notes. SO how can I change the stem
length for notes that are beamed?
What I like to do in this situation is use a function "slant" that
adjusts the stems
