??? The property stem-length only applies to notes typeset within
text markups with the \markup{ \note ... } function.The length of unbeamed stems is determined by the 'length' property of the Stem object. The corresponding property for notes with beams is called 'beamed-lengths'. These properties specify the normal length and LilyPond has fairly advanced algorithms to calculate the actual length to give a results that looks nice. The property that Roland mentions below determines the minimum length of stems when there is a beam. All this is documented if you go to the on-line documentation, section "Stems" and follow the link to the program reference of the Stem object.
If you have problems with the notation terms in English, I recommend the music glossary, also available from the documentation web page.

Hello list, hello Donald,

I need to adjust stems manually so that they do not collide. How can I do that?
In the example below stems grow longer when there are no beams (4rths) however, LilyPond ignores stem-length when there are beams.
What can I do?
Do You want to lengthen beamed stems? Just before about two or three hours I needed this, and after a while reading the documentation (It's always a little bit hard for me, because I'm not an English native speaker)-: I found a solution for my problem with:
\override Voice.Stem #'beamed-extreme-minimum-free-lengths = #'(1.5 1.5 1.5)
where the first number is for eights, the second for sixteenths and the third number for 32ths (if I understood all correct). For more than three beams You have to add more numbers.
Perhaps this is helpful to You?
Best Regards Roland
