I have a Chopin piece where the notes form a broken beam across a key change and break (see first attachment broken-beam-over-key-change.) LilyPond has drawn the stem and beam long in the upper right-hand corner to avoid the key change. I'm not sure I like that and I'm trying to change it. I can shorten the stem with the \alterBroken command but then the beam collides with the key change (see second attachment broken-beam-over-key-change-modified.)
Is there a way to shorten the upper right-hand broken beam? Below is the MWE:
%%%
\version "2.24.4"
\language "english"
\paper {
indent = 0
ragged-right = ##t
}
\relative {
\time 6/8
\key cs \minor
c'8 r <bf a'>[( c]) r
\alterBroken positions #'((2 . 2) (0 . 0)) Beam % comment this to see default behavior
<bf g'>[( |
\bar "||"
\key af \major
\break
c8])
}
%%%
