Changing the position of trill interval indicators

You can change where trill interval indicators, such as an accidental or W.T. marking, are positioned relative to individual trill marks, independently of your project-wide setting. You can do this for the current layout and frame chain only, or for all layouts and frame chains.
Note

This does not affect the position of trill interval accidentals on subsequent notes over which trills extend.

Prerequisite

  • The lower zone is shown.

  • Properties is selected in the lower zone toolbar.

  • If you are in Engrave mode, Graphic Editing Graphic Editing button is selected in the Engrave toolbox.

  • You have chosen the appropriate property scope for local properties.

Procedure

  1. Select the trills whose interval indicator position you want to change. You can do this in Write mode and Engrave mode.
  2. In the Properties panel, activate Interval position in the Trills group.
  3. Select one of the following options from the menu:
    • Above

    • Below

    • On the right

    • Superscript

Result

The position of interval indicators relative to the selected trill marks is changed. If the property scope was set to Locally, this change only takes effect in the current layout and frame chain.

Tip

You can change the default position of interval indicators relative to all trill marks project-wide in the Trill Intervals section of the Ornaments page in Engraving Options.
