Hello! Can anyone help me figure out how to beam 16th notes in 2/4 time? Thank you
You could beam them all together and then split the secondary beam as in the picture. Or Shift-M and enter this for Time Signature [2]/4

Jasper, thank you so much. It worked very well.
Does it mean that the setting in Notation options does not work in 2/4?
I mean that setting:
Because yesterday someone (@Alessandro ?) raised the issue about having to beam manually to avoid those secondary beaming and that setting did not help there…
[Edit] I just realized the way to get those 16th notes beamed all together in the first place is to enter [2]/4 as a time signature (as @jesele rightly wrote), which defeats the possibility of that option to work. Sorry for this useless input.
It works with [2]/4 but not with 2/4
Jesper
Well, yes, it does work. I don’t know what I’ve been doing like 2 minutes ago. Or maybe changing the time sig changed the setting? I don’t know. But yes, that option works! Yey!
