@itemize @bullet
+@item The syntax for setting properties has been simplified:
+the following table lists the differences:
+
+@example
+\property A.B = #C \set A.B = #C
+\property A.B \unset \unset A.B
+\property A.B \set #C = #D \override A.B #C = #D
+\property A.B \override #C = #D (removed)
+\property A.B \revert #C \revert A.B #C
+@end example
+
+Furthermore, if @code{A} is left out, the bottommost context is used
+by default. In other words, it is no longer necessary to explicitly
+mention @code{Voice}, @code{Lyrics} or @code{ChordNames}.
+
+Old:
+
+@example
+ \property Voice.autoBeaming = ##f
+ \property Staff.TimeSignature \set #'style = #'C
+@end example
+
+New:
+
+@example
+ \set autoBeaming = ##f
+ \override Staff.TimeSignature #'style = #'C
+@end example
+
+
@item Tweaks made with @code{\override} and @code{\revert} no longer
hide tweaks at higher context levels.
