Note, though, that some thickness properties are different; for example, the -thickness of beams is measured in staff-spaces. +thickness of beams is controlled by the value of the +@code{beam-thickness} property, which is measured in staff-spaces. So how are lengths to be scaled in proportion to the font size? This can be done with the help of a special function called
