lsegs(optional)Describes the number of segments into which a dashed or dotted line may be divided,
or
the number of "peaks" of a wavy line; a pair of space-separated values (minimum and
maximum, respectively) provides a range between which a rendering system-supplied
value
may fall, while a single value indicates a fixed amount of space; that is, the minimum
and
maximum values are equal.
One or two values of datatype
a positive integer no smaller than 2, separated by a space.
lstartsym.size(optional)Holds the relative size of the line-start symbol.
Value conforms to data.FONTSIZESCALE.

of similar elements. May not contain space characters.
Value conforms to data.WORD.
next(optional)Used to point to the next event(s) in a user-defined collection.
One or more values from data.URI, separated by spaces.
part(optional)Indicates the part in which the current feature should appear. Use '%all' when the
feature should occur in every part.
One or more values of datatype
a string matching the following regular expression: "(%all|#[\i][\c]+)"
, separated by spaces.
partstaff(optional)Signifies the part staff on which a notated feature occurs. Use '%all' when the
feature should occur on every staff.
One or more values of datatype
a string matching the following regular expression: "(%all|\d+(-\d+)?)"
, separated by spaces.
place(optional)Captures the placement of the item with respect to the staff with which it is
associated.
Value conforms to data.STAFFREL.
plist(optional)When the target attribute is present, plist identifies the active participants; that
is, those entities pointed "from", in a relationship with the specified target(s).
When
the target attribute is not present, it identifies participants in a mutual
relationship.
One or more values from data.URI, separated by spaces.
precedes(optional)Points to one or more events in a user-defined collection that are known to be
successors of the current element.
One or more values from data.URI, separated by spaces.
prev(optional)Points to the previous event(s) in a user-defined collection.
One or more values from data.URI, separated by spaces.
resp(optional)Indicates the agent(s) responsible for some aspect of the text’s transcription,
editing, or encoding. Its value must point to one or more identifiers declared in
the
document header.
One or more values from data.URI, separated by spaces.
sameas(optional)Points to an element that is the same as the current element but is not a literal
copy
of the current element.
One or more values from data.URI, separated by spaces.
staff(optional)Signifies the staff on which a notated event occurs or to which a control event
applies. Mandatory when applicable.
One or more values of datatype positiveInteger, separated by spaces.
startid(optional)Holds a reference to the first element in a sequence of events to which the feature
applies.
Value conforms to data.URI.
synch(optional)Points to elements that are synchronous with the current element.
One or more values from data.URI, separated by spaces.
to(optional)Records a timestamp adjustment of a feature’s programmatically-determined location
in
terms of musical time; that is, beats.
Value conforms to data.TSTAMPOFFSET.
tstamp(optional)Encodes the onset time in terms of musical time, i.e., beats[.fractional beat part],
as expressed in the written time signature.
Value conforms to data.BEAT.
tstamp2(optional)Encodes the ending point of an event, i.e., a count of measures plus a beat location
in the ending measure.
Value conforms to data.MEASUREBEAT.
type(optional)Designation which characterizes the element in some sense, using any convenient
classification scheme or typology that employs single-token labels.
One or more values of datatype NMTOKEN, separated by spaces.
vgrp(optional)Provides a label for members of a vertically aligned group.
Value is a positive integer.
vo(optional)Records the vertical adjustment of a feature’s programmatically-determined location
in
terms of staff interline distance; that is, in units of 1/2 the distance between adjacent
staff lines.
Value conforms to data.MEASUREMENTSIGNED.
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.
xml:base(optional)Provides a base URI reference with which applications can resolve relative URI
references into absolute URI references.
Value conforms to data.URI.
xml:id(optional)Regularizes the naming of an element and thus facilitates building links between it
and other resources. Each id attribute within a document must have a unique value.
Value is a valid xml:id.

necessary to record the placement of a feature in a facsimile image, use the facs
attribute.
Value is a decimal number.
