I seem to have run into a snag with re-writing default-time-signature-settings, it works ok if there was previously a rule for a time signature, but adding a rule for one (such as 6/8) which has none doesn't result in the beaming pattern being used. Here is a minimal example. The first bar shows

Hello Richard, if you want to use \beamExceptions, it seems like the only way to do this is %% \version "2.19.25" { \time 4/4 \set Timing.beamExceptions = \beamExceptions { 8[] 8[ 8] 8[] 8[] 8[ 8 8] } e'8 f' g' a' b' a' g' f' } %% – that’s a bit cumbersome and IMO it
