    Robert, <br>
    you must calculate it from FCEntryMetrics:<br>
    take two note entries that belong to that beam and calculate their
    stem top position and their distance.<br>
    From that calculate the angle.<br>

          wondering if anybody knew, how to obtain the angle of a beam?
          I've looked through the classes, but found nothing, and
          currently have no idea how to approach such an issue.</div>

          reason I ask is this: I would like to connect groups of beamed
          notes that are distributed over various measures (at least
          over 2 measures...). </div>

          that there is Patterson Beams, but from my experience they
          won't work as soon as there is a system or page break. So I go
          for the manual solution (extending the beams on either site)
          and have the impression that the most difficult part in doing
          so is getting the angle right. (Adjusting the height would
          also be great, but that's another step...)</div>
