Comment #1 on issue 2190 by [email protected]: Tuplet positioning on beamed notes is ugly
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2190

I don't think that all tuplets should be outside of the staff. Here's how i'd place them.

Does anyone have nicely engraved real-world examples?


\markup { Here is how beamed quaver tuplets look now; ugly, with some colliding
with the staff lines: }
\relative f' {
 \times 2/3 { f8 f f }
 \times 2/3 { e e e }
 \times 2/3 { d d d }
 \times 2/3 { c c c } % All lower notes are the same as this;
 \override TupletBracket #'bracket-visibility = ##t
 \times 2/3 { f f f }
 \times 2/3 { e e e }
 \times 2/3 { d d d }
 \times 2/3 { c c c }
}


\markup \wordwrap { Here is how they should look in my opinion. Perhaps TupletNumbers lying between the lines should have bigger and/or slanted whiteout. }

\relative f' {
 \override TupletNumber #'whiteout = ##t

 \times 2/3 { f8 f f }

 \tweak #'padding #1.60 \times 2/3 { e e e }

 \once \override TupletNumber #'Y-offset = #2
 \times 2/3 { d d d }

 \once \override TupletNumber #'Y-offset = #1.5
 \times 2/3 { c c c }

 \override TupletBracket #'bracket-visibility = ##t
 \times 2/3 { f f f }

 \tweak #'padding #1.6 \times 2/3 { e e e }

 \tweak #'padding #1.8 \times 2/3 { d d d }

 \tweak #'padding #1.2 \times 2/3 { c c c }
}


\markup { I'd make them exactly the same in case of unbeamed notes. }
