Represents a textual element of a score.

A new Text belonging to a score can be created with:
  text = new Text(score);
where score is a Score Object .

Currently, only 'staff text' elements can be added to a score (by moving a Cursor Object to the required point and using the Cursor.putStaffText(text) method).

Properties

Name Type Description
color QColor the text foreground colour.
defaultFont QFont the font used to display the text. Hint: this may be set to 10 point Times with var font = new QFont("Times", 10); text.defaultFont = font;.
text string the text to display.
xOffset double the horizontal offset (in spaces*) from the default position of the text (positive: to the right, negative: to the left).
yOffset double the vertical offset (in spaces*) from the default position of the text (positive: down, negative: up).

* Note: "Spaces" is a relative measurement unique to music notation. One space unit is the vertical distance between two lines of a staff.
* Note: Due to a bug in the plugin framework, xOffset and yOffset are parsed as integers.
