New issue 2474 by [email protected]: tuplet beaming may be confusing
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2474
opening a new issue from the discussion in
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2470
would be great if someone could quote standards about how to beam tuplets,
or, more specifically, whether there are cases when beaming can (should) be
different from tuplet spanners.
beaming together tuplets of eighthnotes may be particularly confusing if
the tuplets involve quarters (which can't be beamed).
a simple (but perhaps too drastic) way would be to set all beamExceptions
in time-signature-settings.scm to have ((1 . 12) . (3 3 ...)) as smallest
setting, but this will certainly change behaviour of sixteenth patterns in,
say, 2/2, 3/2 or 9/4 times.
