*Valid values for marked-keys are integers from 1 to 96. Setting a new value will remove the previous marks.

Methods

Keys can be marked directly by calling the setMarkedKeys method of the custom element instance.

Method has a single argument: an array of integers. Valid values in the array are integers from 1 to 96.

Marks can be removed by providing an empty array as an argument.

Keys can also be marked by setting the marked-keys attribute value. Using setMarkedKeys method is an alternative way to set marks on keys by using an array instead of string.

Usage example:

var pianokeys = document.createElement("custom-piano-keys")
pianokeys.setMarkedKeys([1,5,8])
document.body.appendChild(pianokeys)

Removing the marks:

pianokeys.setMarkedKeys([])
