Re: Auto-beam in 2.6

[Mats Bengtsson]

The default settings in LilyPond include settings equivalent to
#(override-auto-beam-setting '(end 1 32 2 4) 1 8)
#(override-auto-beam-setting '(end 1 32 2 4) 3 8)
see the file scm/auto-beam.scm

This means that you have to revert these settings using:
#(revert-auto-beam-setting '(end 1 32 2 4) 1 8)
#(revert-auto-beam-setting '(end 1 32 2 4) 3 8)


Since the default settings also contain the equivalent of
#(override-auto-beam-setting '(end * * 2 4) 1 4)
your setting does not really change anything.
