Re: time signatures and measure grouping

[Mats Bengtsson]

If you follow the link in the online manual from the section on
Time Signature to Measure_grouping_engraver, you will find a
property called beatGrouping. This is actually the relevant
property that is set by the set-time-signature function, but
you can also set it directly yourself.
