Re: beaming patterns

[v!ictor address@hidden]

hello Irenicus,

You can get A LOT of beaming flexibility with the \set stemRightBeamCount and \set stemLeftBeamCount commands:
See 1.2.4.3 Manual Beams in the docs:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/Documentation/user/lilypond/Manual-beams#Manual-beams

The example below does exactly what (I think) you want.
See attached image.

%%%%% BEGIN EXAMPLE %%%%%%%%
\version "2.11.33"

\new Score{
      \new Voice {
      \time 6/8
         c'16[
         c'8
         \set stemRightBeamCount = #2
         \set stemLeftBeamCount = #1
         c'16
         \set stemLeftBeamCount = #2
         c'16
         c'16]
         c'4.
      }
}

%%%%% END EXAMPLE %%%%%%%%

Hi,
I have a question regarding beam behavior: With 6/8 rhythm, I have the
following pattern:
1.   2.  3.   4.   5.
x16 x8 x16 x16 x16, usually this pattern starts or finishes one beat(ie.
there's x4. before or after it).

Now I want all five notes tied in one group, but also 3,4,5 tied in a
triplet. What Lilypond does on default is that it ties 4. and 5. into a pair
and lefts 3. alone.

This cannot be handled with mere x16 [x8] x16 [x16 x16] as this disconnects
the notes into two groups.

Is there any way to handle such pattern? I saw something on automatic beam
behavior in the documentation, but I just don't understand it.
Hope I made myself clear with my sloppy music-related english.

Thanks.
