Re: Compound time auto-beaming problem

[Mats Bengtsson]

Are you really sure that you want beams across the
beats in the second  measure? As a  player, I would
find that much more confusing than the layout you
get now from LilyPond. Also, since you want to break
beams at the beat in the first bar, I don't see any way
to configure the auto-beaming to do what you want.
