Attributes

Name Type Required? Description
accelerate yes-no No If yes, the trill accelerates during playback. It is no if not specified.
beats trill-beats No The number of distinct notes during playback, counting the starting note but not the two-note turn. It is 4 if not specified.
color color No Indicates the color of an element.
default-x tenths No Changes the computation of the default horizontal position. The origin is changed relative to the left-hand side of the note or the musical position within the bar. Positive x is right and negative x is left.

This attribute provides higher-resolution positioning data than the <offset> element. Applications reading a MusicXML file that can understand both features should generally rely on this attribute for its greater accuracy.
default-y tenths No Changes the computation of the default vertical position. The origin is changed relative to the top line of the staff. Positive y is up and negative y is down.

This attribute provides higher-resolution positioning data than the placement attribute. Applications reading a MusicXML file that can understand both attributes should generally rely on this attribute for its greater accuracy.

font-size font-size No One of the CSS sizes or a numeric point size.
font-style font-style No Normal or italic style.

placement above-below No Indicates whether something is above or below another element, such as a note or a notation.
relative-x tenths No Changes the horizontal position relative to the default position, either as computed by the individual program, or as overridden by the default-x attribute. Positive x is right and negative x is left. It should be interpreted in the context of the <offset> element or directive attribute if those are present.
relative-y tenths No Changes the vertical position relative to the default position, either as computed by the individual program, or as overridden by the default-y attribute. Positive y is up and negative y is down. It should be interpreted in the context of the placement attribute if that is present.
second-beat percent No The percentage of the way through the duration for landing on the second beat. It is 25 if not specified.
slash yes-no No If yes, then a vertical line is used to slash the turn. It is no if not specified.
start-note start-note No The starting note for playback, relative to the current note. It is upper if not specified.
