Line 1:

If a ~~tremolo's~~ total duration is less than a quarter-note, or exactly a half-note, or between a half-note and a whole-note, it is normally typeset with all beams touching the stems. Certain engraving styles typeset some of these beams as centered floating beams that do not touch the stems. The number of floating beams in this type of tremolo is controlled with the <code>'gap-count</code> property of the <code>Beam</code> object, and the size of the gaps between beams and stems is set with the <code>'gap</code> property.
