I'm trying to define the set of default automatic beamings for a score. The new beaming function is nice, but it won't let me set multiple rules in a global variable. Here is what I'm trying to do--I have a rule for 4/4 and a rule for 3/4 that limits beaming to a quarter note:
\version "2.13.32" global = { \overrideTimeSignatureSettings #'Score #'(4 . 4) % time signature fraction #'(1 . 4) % base moment fraction #'(1 1 1 1) % beatStructure
#'() % beamExceptions
\overrideTimeSignatureSettings #'Score #'(3 . 4) % time signature fraction #'(1 . 4) % base moment fraction #'(1 1 1) % beatStructure
#'() % beamExceptions %} }
music = \relative c' { \time 4/4 \repeat unfold 4 { c8 c c c c c c c } \time 3/4 \repeat unfold 4 { c8 c c c c c } }
The problem is that with just one of those rules define in \global, everything is fine. With the 2 definitions, only the last one takes effect. I tried putting them in separate variables (\globalFour and \globalThree) and then calling both in the \new Staff before \music, but that didn't work either.
