Description
Your idea
- 6/4 - I set beaming to pairs of eights:
- Time signature is changed to 4/4.
- Back to 6/4 - beaming ist default again:
My request: a possibility to set a beaming of a particular time signature (in this case 6/4) as global setting for the whole score.
It should be used every time this time signature is in use.
Problem to be solved
No need to adjust beaming every time the time signature is changed.

Research direction
Start from the issue's 6/4 to 4/4 to 6/4 reproduction and define how a score-wide beaming preference for a time signature should persist and apply. Done means that configured beaming for 6/4 is reused wherever 6/4 appears, without readjustment after changing signatures.
