bracket.place, bracket.visible, color, num.format, num.place, num.visible

bracket.place(optional)Used to state where a tuplet bracket will be placed in relation to the note heads. Value conforms to data.STAFFREL.basic.

bracket.visible(optional)States whether a bracket should be rendered with a tuplet. Value conforms to data.BOOLEAN.

color(optional)Used to indicate visual appearance. Do not confuse this with the musical term 'color' as used in pre-CMN notation. Value conforms to data.COLOR.

num.format(optional)Controls how the num:numbase ratio is to be displayed. Allowed values are: "count" (Only the num attribute is displayed, , '7'.), "ratio" (Both the num and numbase attributes are displayed, , '7:4'.)

num.place(optional)States where the number will be placed in relation to the notational feature. Value conforms to data.STAFFREL.basic.

num.visible(optional)Determines if the number is visible. Value conforms to data.BOOLEAN.
