Re: Stem.stem-begin-position not giving desired output on beamed stems (tablature)

Thanks Harm,  Then remove it there.  Yes, for some reason that flew over my head. Probably because it wasn't styled correctly ;) One question on styling, which is correct?  I think the first, considering rule 3: closing parenthesis close the line.  (/ (+ start-in (- (abs length-in)

Re: Stem.stem-begin-position not giving desired output on beamed stems (tablature)

One more little adjustment, for anyone who will benefit from it.  The previous version only overrode Beam.positions on the first line. After a line break they go back to how they were if by default.  I don't quite understand why, but the solution was to move that section under a

Re: Stem.stem-begin-position not giving desired output on beamed stems (tablature)

To anyone who's interested,  I've tidied up the workaround for this. It now takes two inputs; stem-start and stem-length.  It also now allows for above or below staff positioning.  %% \version "2.18.2" beam-stem-height = #(define-music-function (parser location

Re: Stem.stem-begin-position not giving desired output on beamed stems (tablature)

Thanks Harm,  That's just what I was after.  I'm keen to learn more about how beam positions and stems are calculated. Then maybe I can calculate it using only 2 input variables.  I think I'll have a look in the .scm files, and see what I can find. I'm not sure yet which one it'll be in.

Re: Stem.stem-begin-position not giving desired output on beamed stems (tablature)

So I figured a little workaround that does the job.  I use 2 voices, one which shows only the Stems and Beams, the other which shows only the TabNoteHeads.  Unfortunately, it's doesn't always compile when I use extra complex combinations of rests, notes and spacers. Says it has an internal

Stem.stem-begin-position not giving desired output on beamed stems (tablature)
