thank you carl for your answer. i still think that 2.13.4 has some beaming issues.

OK, i agree that in 4/4 eight notes can be beamed in groups of two every quarter note or in groups of 4 every half note. i accept as correct beaming in groups of four. *** but only as long as you only have 8th notes, and not when smaller values like 16ths are involved *** in fact, the message you directed me to suggests the same: > http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.lilypond.devel/23515 (see last paragraph by Trevor Daniels) now, 2.13.4 correctly beams every quarter note when 16th notes are present, **except in one case:** a 16th rest followed by a dotted 8th (see second bar in the attached image). this is inconsistent with the other cases and i see it as a bug. i think the dotted eight should be detached from the following eight notes. best, lj _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
