unwanted inner beaming
Hi,
Partway through my score, my semiquavers have started to break their inner beam. I'm really not sure what has caused this nor how to fix this, since there is no inner beam break found in the time signature properties and trying to edit the properties doesn't affect the beaming in the slightest.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Please attach the score (.mscz file).

Alright. I'm pretty sure the inner beaming starts around bar 130 but it's quite unclear. It's certainly clear from 160 onwards.
Those ledger lines look way to close as well, here's what I get loading your score into Musescore 3.7, no beam breaks.

By 3.7, do you mean that there is a newer version of MS than 4.3.2? It is a great sign that the beaming fixed itself when you downloaded the file though.

I understand now. Does that mean that there isn't a fix using MS 4?

No. In Mu4 you can use the Beams palette to 'unbreak' those subbeams

Whilst manually unbreaking the beams is an option, the project seems to automatically break the inner beams on semiquavers as the default. Whilst I can manually unbreak these beams as I go, this would be cumbersome and take a lot of time that I wish not to sink into the project. Not to mention the 500 odd bars I would have to manually comb over already. I was just wondering whether there was some toggle for this (besides the time signature properties that doesn't seem to work) or whether this is a bug that can be removed. It seems however, since the beaming doesn't occur in MS 3.7, that maybe in future version of MS 4 the beaming will fix itself.

There was a similar problem in another thread recently where beaming went odd after multiple time sugnature changes, maybe you've exposed the same issue.

Thank you for linking this thread, and it does seem like the same issue, as I suspected the inner beaming bug was due to the multitude of time signatures used in that portion of the score. Since the user in the thread is on the same version as well, I would expect this bug to be patched in the near future. Thank you for your help.
