Beam grouping with non-standard time signatures
Appearance
There are no default automatic beam groupings specified for a number of non-standard time signatures, including 2/8, 7/8 and 10/8. If automatic beams are required the grouping must be specified using beatStructure. This example groups beams in 7/8 time in the pattern 2-3-2.
