The <glyph> element

Parent element: <appearance>

The glyph element represents what SMuFL glyph should be used for different variations of symbols that are semantically identical. The type attribute specifies what type of glyph is being defined. The element value specifies what SMuFL glyph to use, including recommended stylistic alternates. The SMuFL glyph name should match the type. For instance, a type of quarter-rest would use values restQuarter, restQuarterOld, or restQuarterZ. A type of g-clef-ottava-bassa would use values gClef8vb, gClef8vbOld, or gClef8vbCClef. A type of octave-shift-up-8 would use values ottava, ottavaBassa, ottavaBassaBa, ottavaBassaVb, or octaveBassa.
