Stem length & beam angle

• Dec 20, 2012 - 10:42

hi!

is there a way to make the beam angle to be straight by default? also, i'd like the stem height/length to be the same for all the notes. the look i'd like to achieve by default is the left measure in the attached image. the measure on the right shows the current default in musescore.

editing the stem lenghts and beam angles one by one for a full score is tedious and requires lots of work. furthermore, editing the score often resets the beam angles and the stem lengths and they need to be adjusted again.

thanks,

Try setting Menu -> Style -> Edit General Style -> Beams -> Minimum/Maximum slope to 0

Right-click on a note (any note): Select -> All Similar Elements.
Right-click again: Note Properties: change Stem Direction to 'Up'.

But then, to get the exact appearance that you want you will maybe have to adjust the beam heights by double-clicking on them and moving the left corner up or down.
