How would cross-staff beams push staves apart when their respective stems apparently don't? The thing that I can imagine is that the cross-staff beam is part of both skylines, and Lilypond tries pushing it away from itself. Is it something like that? > 1) An automatic beam ending just before a staff change fails to expand > skylines, resulting in similar collisions. Explicit [ ] beams are a > workaround. First described in this issue, comments 2 and following. That sounds like something that could be addressed without something else caving in. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
