Hello,
I'm trying to define the set of default automatic beamings for a score. The new beaming function is nice, but it won't let me set multiple rules in a global variable. Here is what I'm trying to do--I have a rule for 4/4 and a rule for 3/4 that limits beaming to a quarter note:
\version "2.13.32"
global = {
\overrideTimeSignatureSettings
#'Score
#'(4 . 4) % time signature fraction
#'(1 . 4) % base moment fraction
#'(1 1 1 1) % beatStructure
#'() % beamExceptions
\overrideTimeSignatureSettings
#'Score
#'(3 . 4) % time signature fraction
#'(1 . 4) % base moment fraction
#'(1 1 1) % beatStructure
#'() % beamExceptions %}
}
music = \relative c' {
\time 4/4
\repeat unfold 4 { c8 c c c c c c c }
\time 3/4
\repeat unfold 4 { c8 c c c c c }
}
\score {
\new Staff {
\global
\music
}
\layout { }
}
The problem is that with just one of those rules define in \global, everything is fine. With the 2 definitions, only the last one takes effect. I tried putting them in separate variables (\globalFour and \globalThree) and then calling both in the \new Staff before \music, but that didn't work either.
Is there a way to do this?
\version "2.13.32"
global = \set beamExceptions =
#'((end . (((1 . 8) . (2 2 2 2))
((1 . 8) . (2 2 2)))))
revertBeaming = \set beamExceptions = #'()
Indeed it does. Actually you can simplify the rule to:
\set beamExceptions =
#'((end . (((1 . 8) . (2 2 2)))))
and that covers both 4/4 and 3/4.
I was a bit fuzzy on the beamExceptions before, now I'm beginning to see the light. Thanks!
