Visual component declarations.
beam.color(optional)Color of beams, including those associated with tuplets. Value conforms to data.COLOR.
beam.rend(optional)Encodes whether a beam is "feathered" and in which direction. Allowed values are: "acc" (Beam lines grow farther apart from left to right.), "rit" (Beam lines grow closer together from left to right.), "norm" (Beam lines are equally-spaced over the entire length of the beam.)
beam.slope(optional)Captures beam slope. Value is a decimal number.
clef.color(optional)Describes the color of the clef. Value conforms to data.COLOR.
clef.visible(optional)Determines whether the clef is to be displayed. Value conforms to data.BOOLEAN.
grid.show(optional)Determines whether to display guitar chord grids. Value conforms to data.BOOLEAN.
