I had found that space, but there is something else, the error occurs only
when its embedded with, i did not know hat that made a difference:

\new Staff {
\clef "G_8" % The notation is one octave higher
}

I tried to replace my last article with the errormessages but for some
reason this does not come trough your newsserver.

The errormessages are:
warning: weird stem size, check for narrow beams

And the beam falls down again.

> Furthermore, I misunderstood why you were using #'length-fraction.

Sorry, i think i was not clear about that.

Kind regards and many thanks for your help!
