Re: stem length with beaming?

[Erik Sandberg]

Thanks, added this bug to CVS as tremolo-stem-length-beamed.ly. The stems 
should automatically be long enough.

The workaround you are looking for, is probably
    \override Stem #'beamed-lengths = #'(20)
The value of beamed-length is a list, so you could also do something like
#'(5 6 7)
to get different stem lengths for different beam multiplicities.
