3.2.157 time-signature-interface

A time signature, in different styles. The following values for style are recognized:

C

4/4 and 2/2 are typeset as C and struck C, respectively. All other time signatures are written as two numbers. The value default is equivalent to value ‘C’.

neomensural

2/2, 3/2, 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 6/4, 9/4, 4/8, 6/8, and 9/8 are typeset with neo-mensural style mensuration marks. All other time signatures are written as two numbers.

mensural

2/2, 3/2, 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 6/4, 9/4, 4/8, 6/8, and 9/8 are typeset with mensural style mensuration marks. All other time signatures are written as two numbers.

single-number

All time signatures are typeset as a single number, e.g., 3/2 is written as 3.

numbered

All time signatures are typeset as two numbers.

User-settable properties:

fraction (fraction, as pair)

Numerator and denominator of a time signature object.

senza-misura-stencil (stencil)

The symbol to print when TimeSignature.fraction is not set. Overriding TimeSignature.stencil circumvents this.

style (symbol)

This setting determines in what style a grob is typeset. Valid choices depend on the stencil callback reading this property.

This grob interface is used in the following graphical object(s): TimeSignature.
