The following should give identical beaming in both measures:
\version "2.19.32" { \time 3/4 %\set Timing.beamExceptions = #'() 8-"default" 8 16 16 16 16 8 8 8-"with bars" 8 \bar "" 16 16 16 16 \bar "" 8 8 }
However, it doesn’t – see attached image.
Clearing beamExceptions makes the problem go away.
