Kneed beams are inserted automatically when a large gap is detected between the note heads. This behavior can be tuned through the <code>auto-knee-gap</code> property. A kneed beam is drawn if the gap is larger than the value of <code>auto-knee-gap</code> plus the width of the beam object (which depends on the duration of the notes and the slope of the beam). By default, <code>auto-knee-gap</code> is set to 5.5 staff spaces. <lilypond version="2.24"> { f8 f''8 f8 f''8 \override Beam.auto-knee-gap = #6 f8 f''8 f8 f''8 } </lilypond> [[Category:Rhythms]] [[Category:Included in the official documentation]] [[Category:Snippet]]
