The <slash> element

Parent element: <measure-style>

The slash type is used to indicate that slash notation is to be used. If the slash is on every beat, use-stems is no (the default). To indicate rhythms but not pitches, use-stems is set to yes. The type attribute indicates whether this is the start or stop of a slash notation style. The use-dots attribute works as for the beat-repeat element, and only has effect if use-stems is no.
