Hi! I tend towards using Beam.damping = #2 to make ly's beam slants a
little nicer, but sometimes the thing in the attached image happens: a
start or end of a secondary beam is in the middle of a staff space, which
all the major music engraving authorities, by which I mean Gould and Ross,
agree is Very Bad. I've fiddled with basically every property and
subproperty I could to try and fix that, but none of them have any effect
whatsoever. Idk if modifying damping isn't interfering with it for some
reason. Does anyone know a way to make LilyPond always make every start/end
of a beam touch a staff line? or am I doomed to manually set the beam
position every time this happens /lh
