-Not all durations (especially those containing tuplets) can be
-represented exactly with normal notes and dots, but the
-@code{Completion_heads_engraver} will not insert tuplets.
-
-The @code{Completion_heads_engraver} only affects notes; it does not
-split rests.
+For consistency with previous behavior, notes and rests with
+duration longer than a measure, such as @code{c1*2}, are split into
+notes without any scale factor, @code{@{ c1 c1 @}}. The property
+@code{completionFactor} controls this behavior, and setting it to
+@code{#f} cause split notes and rest to have the scale factor
+of the input durations.

@funindex \time
Special autobeaming rules (other than ending a beam on a beat)
are defined in the @code{beamExceptions} property.
+The value for @code{beamExceptions}, a somewhat complex Scheme
+data structure, is easiest generated with the
+@code{\beamExceptions} function. This function is given one or
+more manually beamed measure-length rhythmic patterns (measures
+have to be separated by a bar check@tie{}@code{|} since the
+function has no other way to discern the measure length). Here is
+a simple example:
+
@lilypond[quote,relative=2,verbatim]
\time 3/16
\set Timing.beatStructure = #'(2 1)
\set Timing.beamExceptions =
- #'( ;start of alist
- (end . ;entry for end of beams
- ( ;start of alist of end points
- ((1 . 32) . (2 2 2)) ;rule for 1/32 beams -- end each 1/16
- ))) %close all entries
+ \beamExceptions { 32[ 32] 32[ 32] 32[ 32] }
c16 c c |
\repeat unfold 6 { c32 } |
@end lilypond
-@code{beamExceptions} is an alist with a key of rule-type and a value
-of beaming-rules.
-
-At this time the only available value of rule-type is
-@code{'end} for beam ending.
-
-Beaming-rules is a scheme alist (or list of pairs) that indicates the
-beam type and the grouping to be applied to beams containing notes with
-a shortest duration of that beam type.
-
-@example
-#'((beam-type1 . grouping-1)
- (beam-type2 . grouping-2)
- (beam-type3 . grouping-3))
-@end example
-
-Beam type is a scheme pair indicating the duration of the beam,
-e.g., @code{(1 . 16)}.
-
-Grouping is a scheme list indicating the grouping to be applied to
-the beam. The grouping is in units of the beam type.
