time signature, beam problems
Hello again,
Having the option to group as we want (with "also change shorter notes option" bonus) is great since 2.0. I wanted to mention two things about this though. One is like bug, the other is a feature request.
-
As you see in the picture, there is time signature as 10/16. The beams of 16th notes conflicts with 8th if you look closely. The time signature I create according to this picture, does not operate. The reason is the conflict of 8th notes obviously.
-
In bigger/longer time signatures the screen may not be enough to arrange beams. Making the window wider is not enough sometimes. I use two monitors side by side, that's how I achieve to do what I want :) But at home I don't have that chance :) Visual beam arrangement is great, but I'd love to be able to write numbers for beaming.
Thanks a lot.

there are no beams in that picture, just flags. But yes, they do touch one another, that much is be (fon) design
Indeed, the picture looks correct as far as I can tell. If you were expecting beams instead of flags, we would need you to attach your actual score, not just a picture of it, in order to understand and assist better.

In a case of irregularity, program tends to beam all for example.

You can adjust note-beaming for a particular time signature, see:

This picture shows a long rytmic cycle. Sometimes it is really hard to write these kind of cycles' beam properties, it doesn't fit the screen.

there's not a single beam in that image, just quarter and half notes.

Based on your attached picture (indir.png) it is true that for a 32/4 time signature, beaming note groups can become unwieldy for 16th and 32nd notes:

Have you considered something like this:

Thank you for suggestion. I got your point but my concern is not only to write the rhytmic cycle, we have compositions based/build on these cycles. So the beams of notes should be parallel to the cycle. Changing metronome and time signature does not really help :)
