Hi all
below is a fragment from an MTX file. I am simply trying to format two
beamed (octave) quavers. No matter how I try to do it, the output is
poor. I have tried all 4 combinations with the upper or lower note of
the octave the anchor of the chord. In each case the stem is not long
enough on one or both of the octave chords. Since PMX does not allow me
to force the direction of a beamed-note stem, the only other thing I can
do to make this acceptable to is to inhibit the beams (I actually want
to format this sequence with a dotted quaver - semi quaver rythm so this
will be tolerable).
Any advice how I can straightforwardly work around this ?
thanks
Neil
