Re: Automatic beaming of dotted quavers

[Phil Holmes]

Carl,

I spent a while trying to get this to work.  It looks like the code possibly 
ignores the numerator, and then treats the dotted 1/8 note as having a 
minimum value of 1/16 and so applies the 1/16 override to the beaming.

HTH a little.

I think this is a bug.  I'm the author of the code in question.  I'll look
into it.
