Re: can't understand beaming

[Ralph Palmer]

Sorry - I should have given a more complete answer. You can correct the problem by completing the first measure with a 1/16 rest, a skip (I think - or is that not counted at all?), or a  1/16 note. Also, to help find similar problems in the future, I would strongly recommend bar checking, by adding "|" ( pipe, but without the quotation marks) at the end of each measure. Then  LilyPond will tell you that you have a time problem. Thus : 

        e8 ( d8 ) cis8\> ( b8 ) a8. ( g16\! ) |
        fis8 ( e8 ) a8 ( a8 ) b8\> ( ais8\! ) 

Pondly,

L.S.

Since the algorithms for beaming have changed I encounter all sorts of
incomprehensible behavior. I'm using 2.13.39

Yes I've read the manual, I've tried every piece of code,
tried the LSR, etc...

Why is the beaming for the two following measures different??
And how do I correct it?

PartPTwoTwoVoiceOne =  \relative fis'' {
       \clef "treble"
       \key d \major
       \time 3/4
       e8 ( d8 ) cis8\> ( b8 ) a8. ( g16\! ) % <-correct beaming
       fis8 ( e8 ) a8 ( a8 ) b8\> ( ais8\! ) % <-incorrect beaming
}

\score { \PartPTwoTwoVoiceOne }

I hope someone can point me in the right direction, it is driving me
desperate!

Thanks in advance,

Arno Rog
