Even thickness of 0.6 looks reasonable to my eyes. But what really matters is the eyes of musicians, and I'm not one (even though I'm taking voice lessons). > Of course, i invite you all to print Lily-engraved scores with default > settings and with beam thickness changed to 0.51.

Thicker beams look better for me, both on screen and when printed. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
