Handling beam groups

There are two settings for groups under a beam, Beam Subgroups and 16th Subgroups, both found on the Options tab on the Staff page of the Score Settings dialog. If “Beam Subgroups” is activated, the program displays subgroups after four sixteenth notes under a beam. If you also activate “16th Subgroups”, subgroups appear after only two sixteenths.
