Comment #6 on issue 454 by joeneeman: beamlets have different length
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=454
I'm not so enthusiastic about introducing new spacing rules for beamlets;
do you have
a reference or an example that suggests it as the correct behaviour. I'm
worried
about the fact that {g16 g8} would be spaced further apart than {g16 g16}
in a tight
situation; it seems to me that a shorter beamlet would be preferable to
uneven
spacing.
Shortening beamlets for a whole page might be difficult. Shortening
beamlets for a
whole system seems more feasible, but I'll mark this as low priority
because I've
just made beamlet lengths configurable so there is a workaround available.
I've left
the previous numbers as defaults, but maybe they should be changed.
I've attached a few examples that I got from a Baerenreiter edition of
Telemann's
violin fantasies. They suggest that
1) The default length beamlet length (one note-head's width) might be too
long
2) The maximum proportion of space taken up by a beamlet might be too
_short_ (rather
than too long, as I was thinking before)
3) Even Baerenreiter is not very consistent about its beamlet lengths, so
maybe this
isn't such a big deal.
