Trills

A trill is often notated with two symbols: the indication and a wavy extension line (~) that indicates the length of the trill. Both components of a trill are available as Smart Shapes and Articulations. If you’ve loaded an Articulations library into your file (or if your Maestro Font Default file is in place), you don’t have to create the markings anew. See also “Engraver Font - "Trill to” Noteheads and Smart Playback.
