Hi all,

Thanks for all your replies.

You are of course right, David, I can just use: \override
Stem.details.lengths = #'(3.5 3.5 3.5 4.5 5.0 6.0)
Thanks for the tip.

Another idea could be changing the default values of Stem.details.lengths.
Using 4.5 or 4.0 instead of the current default 4.25 for the 32nd note stems
make them look much better for both the flat and modern flags and have very
little difference regarding the default flag, see (top is default value of
4.25, bottom is 4.5):
