The zigzag line is typeset by LilyPond using a number of copies of the
scripts.trill_element glyph from the so-called Feta font (see
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/The-Feta-font#The-Feta-font).
Therefore, your only chance to change the thickness is to change the
font size. As you have noted, just changing the font-size property of
the TextSpanner object will also affect the "tr" indication, but the
following trick can be used to compensate the font size of the "tr":
\override TrillSpanner #'font-size = #-3
\override TrillSpanner #'bound-details #'left #'text =
#(make-translate-scaled-markup
'(0.0 . -1.0)
(make-fontsize-markup 3
(make-musicglyph-markup "scripts.trill")))
Note that the argument 3 to make-fontsize-markup has to match the -3 in
the font-size setting.

Hello,
I'm getting to the end of formatting a score, and I just need some
hints on changing the thickness of the zigzag line after trills. I've
tried zigzag-width, thickness, and everything else that looked promising
but with no results. I didn't use font-size because I want the trill sign
to stay the same size.
Is what I want to do possible?
Thanks,
Jonathan
