@bracket.place, @bracket.slope, @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.slope(optional)Records the slope of a bracket; e.g., in terms of MEI virtual units. Positive values indicate upward slope, negative values indicate slope downward, and a zero value indicates the bracket is horizontal. Value conforms to data.MEASUREMENTSIGNED.

@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.

att.color(MEI.shared) Visual color attributes.

@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.

att.tuplet.vis

<tuplet>A group of notes with "irregular" (sometimes called "irrational") rhythmic values, for example, three notes in the time normally occupied by two or nine in the time of five.

MEI.cmn

<tuplet>A group of notes with "irregular" (sometimes called "irrational") rhythmic values, for example, three notes in the time normally occupied by two or nine in the time of five.

Remarks

The value in @bracket.slope is independent of the slope of the beam (if any) encompassing the events of the tuplet.
