Re: connecting beams

Hello,

When answering to a digest, please don’t quote the whole digest and change the 
subject to whatever you want to reply to. In this case as this does not seem 
to be a reply to anything simply write a new mail to lilypond-user@gnu.org.

About your question: You can manually specify Beaming using [ and ]. So you 
can do

\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff = "up" {
8[
\change Staff = "down"
g8 fis g
\change Staff = "up"
8
\change Staff = "down"
e8 dis e]
\change Staff = "up"
}
\new Staff = "down" {
\clef bass
% keep staff alive
s1
}
>>

to get a connected Beam. What do you mean by „at an angle of 90 degrees”? Do 
you want the Beam to be straight?

Cheers,
Valentin
