Output coordinate attributes. Some elements may have their exact rendered *output*
coordinates recorded. x and y attributes indicate where to place the rendered output.
Recording the coordinates of a feature in a facsimile requires the use of the facs
attribute.
x(optional)Encodes an x coordinate for a feature in an output coordinate system. When it is
necessary to record the placement of a feature in a facsimile image, use the facs
attribute.
Value is a decimal number.
<att.xy>direct children@x
y(optional)Encodes a y coordinate for a feature in an output coordinate system. When it is
necessary to record the placement of a feature in a facsimile image, use the facs
attribute.
Value is a decimal number.
<att.xy>direct children@y
x(optional)Encodes an x coordinate for a feature in an output coordinate system. When it is
necessary to record the placement of a feature in a facsimile image, use the facs
attribute.
Value is a decimal number.
y(optional)Encodes a y coordinate for a feature in an output coordinate system. When it is
necessary to record the placement of a feature in a facsimile image, use the facs
attribute.
Value is a decimal number.
Component declarations that are shared between two or more modules.

arranged in a linear, often vertical, sequence.
pOne or more text phrases that form a logical prose passage.

contains column or row heading information.
thDesignates a table cell containing column or row heading information as
opposed to one containing data.
trA formatting element that contains one or more cells (intersection of a row
and a column) in a table.
accidRecords a temporary alteration to the pitch of a note.
anchoredTextContainer for text that is fixed to a particular page location, regardless of changes
made
to the layout of the measures around it.
arpegIndicates that the notes of a chord are to be performed successively
rather than simultaneously, usually from lowest to highest. Sometimes called a "roll".
articAn indication of how to play a note or chord.
attaccaAn instruction to begin the next section or movement of a composition without
pause.
bendA variation in pitch (often micro-tonal) upwards or downwards during the course of
a
note.
bracketSpanMarks a sequence of notational events grouped by a bracket.
breathAn indication of a point at which the performer on an instrument requiring
breath (including the voice) may breathe.
caesuraBreak, pause, or interruption in the normal tempo of a composition. Typically indicated
by
"railroad tracks", i.e., two diagonal slashes.
chordA simultaneous sounding of two or more notes in the same layer *with the same
duration*.
cpMarkA verbal or graphical indication to copy musical material
written elsewhere.
curveA curved line that cannot be represented by a more specific element, such as a
slur.
dirAn instruction expressed as a combination of text and symbols — such as
segno and coda symbols, fermatas over a bar line, etc., typically above, below, or
between
staves, but not on the staff — that is not encoded elsewhere in more specific elements,
like
tempo or dynam.
fermataAn indication placed over a note or rest to indicate that it should be held longer
than
its written value. May also occur over a bar line to indicate the end of a phrase
or section.
Sometimes called a 'hold' or 'pause'.
fingfinger – An individual finger in a fingering indication.
fingGrp(finger group)– A group of individual fingers in a fingering indication.
glissA continuous or sliding movement from one pitch to another, usually
indicated by a straight or wavy line.

and >.
lvA "tie-like" indication that a note should ring beyond its written duration.
mNumDesignation, name, or label for a measure, often but not always
consisting of digits. Use this element when the n attribute on measure does not adequately capture the appearance or placement of the measure
number/label.
tempoText and symbols descriptive of tempo, mood, or style, e.g., "allarg.", "a tempo",
"cantabile", "Moderato", "♩=60", "Moderato ♩ =60").
tieAn indication that two notes of the same pitch form a single note with their combined
rhythmic values.

above).

written
note, the lower neighbor, and the written note.

scheme;
a stanza.
