Stem lengths on beamed notes can be varied by overriding the beamed-lengths property of the details of the Stem. If a single value is used as an argument, the length applies to all stems. When multiple arguments are used, the first applies to eighth notes, the second to sixteenth notes and so on. The final argument also applies to all notes shorter than the note length of the final argument. Non-integer arguments may also be used.
\version "2.24"
\relative c'' {
\override Stem.details.beamed-lengths = #'(2)
a8[ a] a16[ a] a32[ a]
\override Stem.details.beamed-lengths = #'(8 10 12)
a8[ a] a16[ a] a32[ a] r8
\override Stem.details.beamed-lengths = #'(8)
a8[ a]
\override Stem.details.beamed-lengths = #'(8.5)
a8[ a]
\revert Stem.details.beamed-lengths
a8[ a] a16[ a] a32[ a] r16
}
