New issue 2190 by address@hidden: Tuplet positioning on beamed notes  
is ugly
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2190

\version "2.15.23" % also 2.14.2

\markup { Here is how beamed quaver tuplets look now; ugly, with some  
colliding
with the staff lines: }
\relative f' {
 \times 2/3 { f8 f f }
 \times 2/3 { e e e }
 \times 2/3 { d d d }
 \times 2/3 { c c c } % All lower notes are the same as this;
 \times 2/3 { b b b } % the beam will go no lower
 \override TupletBracket #'bracket-visibility = ##t
 \times 2/3 { f' f f }
 \times 2/3 { e e e }
 \times 2/3 { d d d }
 \times 2/3 { c c c }
 \times 2/3 { b b b }
}

\markup { Here is somewhat more how they should look (dodging the staff  
lines): }
\relative f' {
 \times 2/3 { f8 f f }
 \tweak #'padding #1.80 \times 2/3 { e e e }
 \tweak #'padding #1.95 \times 2/3 { d d d }
 % Well, actually, I'm not convinced about these last two.
 \tweak #'padding #2.75 \times 2/3 { c c c }
 \tweak #'padding #2.75 \times 2/3 { b b b }
 \override TupletBracket #'bracket-visibility = ##t
 \times 2/3 { f' f f }
 \tweak #'padding #1.95 \times 2/3 { e e e }
 \tweak #'padding #2.10 \times 2/3 { d d d }
 \tweak #'padding #2.90 \times 2/3 { c c c }
 \tweak #'padding #2.90 \times 2/3 { b b b }
}

\markup \column {
 \line { Where there is no beam (e.g. crochets, "\autoBeamOff"), this issue
doesn't appear at all. }
 \line { (Though the number alone with no TupletBracket is, in my opinion,  
too
high.) }
}
\relative f' {
 \autoBeamOff
 \override TupletBracket #'bracket-visibility = ##f
 \times 2/3 { f8 f f }
 \times 2/3 { e e e }
 \times 2/3 { d d d }
 \times 2/3 { c c c }
 \times 2/3 { b b b }
 \override TupletBracket #'bracket-visibility = ##t
 \times 2/3 { f' f f }
 \times 2/3 { e e e }
 \times 2/3 { d d d }
 \times 2/3 { c c c }
 \times 2/3 { b b b }
}
