Re: Dynamics clashing with stem of cross-staff knee beam

[Caio Barros]

I Finally got time to make the image files of the exemples I gave. there they go.
I think these cover the most situations of dynamics together with cross-staff knee beam.
The webern exemple, the only I didn't talk about, is from the second piece of variations op. 27.

I believe it's clear that the clash should be avoided anyway.

I submitted a patch that does some collision avoidance in these cases - I'll keep you posted.
