In 2.15.39, the first eighth note is not beamed with the others: \relative c'' { \time 3/4 c8 c c c c c r c c c c c }It apparently is different from 2.14.2, but I would not call this a regression. In 3/4, I would like to have 6 eights beamed together, but if any rests are involved, the beaming should be per quarter in order to preserve the 3-beat character. In: \relative c'' { \time 3/4 r4 r8 c c c }the default beaming in 2.14.2 gives an impression of a 2-beat, which shouldbe avoided. Toine Schreurs _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list address@hidden https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-userDon't know if this applies here, but:A regression is something that doesn't work in a later version and that has _deliberately_ worked in a previous version. I.e. something that has once been fixed to work in that specific way. If it just was correct and isn't anymore, it isn't considered a regression but just a newly introduced bug.Best UrsStill a regression. Any change in behavior that is not fully accounted for in the change log and that you feel leads to worse behavior than a previous version is a regression. People can then either report it as a change, at which point it is a feature, or they can fix it, at which point the old functionality is restored.
Regression or no regression, think http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2246 caused this change.
