G'day Christian,
the help text is as follows:
Called as:
php complex_autobeam.php <timesig>=g1,g2,... [<timesig2>=h1,h2,...]...
where <timesig> is the timesignature to use this autobeam on eg 7/8, 13/8, 11/8,
and the groupings are given by a comma-separated list eg.
php complex_autobeam.php 7/8=3,2,2 13/8=2,2,2,3,2,2 18/8=3,2,2,2,2,3,2,2
Only unbeamed beamable notes which satisfy this grouping will be beamed.
I never use this tool - haven't the need - but the way I interpret the help is thet when using the sample commands:
When a 7/8 time sig is encountered then the groupings per bar are 3,2,2
When a 13/8 time sig is encountered then the groupings per bar are 2,2,2,3,2,2
When an 18/8 time sig is encountered then the groupings per bar are 3,2,2,2,2,3,2,2
You only need to use as many arguments as you need, so if we take the first example as the only one you need then your command in the dialogue box would be:
7/8=3,2,2
Then, whenever the tool encountered beamable notes that are unbeamed they would end up in groupings of:
3 quavers, 2 quavers and 2 quavers or the equivalent.
