Hiding/Showing trill marks
You can hide/show trill marks at the start of individual trills. This also hides/shows trill marks on
all systems on which the trills extend.
PREREQUISITE
If you are in Engrave mode, Graphic Editing is selected in the Engrave toolbox.
PROCEDURE
1. Select the trills whose trill marks you want to hide/show. You can do this in Write mode and
Engrave mode.
2.
In the Properties panel, activate Show trill mark in the Trills group.
3.
Activate/Deactivate the corresponding checkbox.
RESULT
Trill marks are shown when the checkbox is activated, and hidden when the checkbox is
deactivated.
When the property is deactivated, trill marks follow your project-wide setting.

Changing the speed of trills
You can indicate different speeds for trills, including indicating a change of speed within a single
trill, by changing the height and frequency of wiggles in their extension lines.
PREREQUISITE
If you are in Engrave mode, Graphic Editing is selected in the Engrave toolbox.
PROCEDURE
1. Select the trills whose speed you want to change. You can do this in Write mode and Engrave
mode.
2. In the Properties panel, activate the following properties, individually or together, in the
Trills group:
● Start speed
● End speed
3.
Select one of the following options from each property menu:
● Slow
● Normal
● Fast
RESULT
The speed of the selected trills is changed. This affects both the frequency of wiggles in their
extension lines and their playback speed.
