Comment #29 on issue 3385 by [email protected]: Ottava with cross-staff
messes up beams
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3385
It makes sense that the side position interface looks at direction
The direction is not set for some Stems until after page-spacing is done,
because sometimes the staves are stretched and it is better to knee the
beam, and the spacing of staves on the page depends on where the 8va is
outside the staff, and the 8va is placed by side-position-interface that
currently checks the direction of the Stem, but we started this chain by
trying to determine the direction of the Stem (thus the error message in
comment #1)
My suggestion to break the chain was to allow room for both an up- and
down-Stem (of unbeamed length) for Stems marked 'cross-staff'. I do not
have any plans to do so, because I would prefer to revert the patch for
3199 for now.
