Subject: Beaming in 4/4 and justify staves

 

Hi,

 

I am a LilyPond newbie. This has probably been asked before but I couldn't find the answer after searching (manual, snippets and mailing list).

 

1) How can I have this beaming in 4/4 as default? see attached image.

 

2) Is there a way to justify staves? I have a 1-page score and there's some space below the last system. Is there a way to have the last system at the bottom the page and add spaces between the other systems appropriately?

 

Sorry if these are dumb questions.

 

Thanks
