att.measure.log

Logical domain attributes. The n attribute contains a name or number associated with the measure (Read, p. 445). Often, this is an integer, but not always. For example, some measures, especially incomplete measures or those under an ending mark, may have labels that contain an integer plus a suffix, such as '12a'. Measures may even have labels, especially in editorial or analytical uses of MEI, that are entirely non-numeric strings. Measure numbers may be machine-generated instead of encoding them in the markup. However, an explicit measure number should restart numbering with the given value. The join attribute may be used to indicate another measure which metrically completes the current, incomplete one.

Attributes
@control, @left, @metcon, @right, @when
@control(optional)Indicates whether or not a bar line is "controlling"; that is, if it indicates a point of alignment across all the parts. Bar lines within a score are usually controlling; that is, they "line up". Bar lines within parts may or may not be controlling. When applied to <measure>, this attribute indicates the nature of the right bar line but not the left.
@left(optional)Indicates the function of the left bar line.
@metcon(optional)Indicates the relationship between the content of a measure and the prevailing meter.
@right(optional)Indicates the function of the right bar line.
@when(optional)Indicates the point of occurrence of this feature along a time line. Its value must be the ID of a <when> element elsewhere in the document.
@left(optional)Indicates the function of the left bar line.
@right(optional)Indicates the function of the right bar line.
(MEI.performance) Temporal alignment attributes.
@when(optional)Indicates the point of occurrence of this feature along a time line. Its value must be the ID of a <when> element elsewhere in the document.
(MEI.shared) Attributes that provide information about a measure’s conformance to the prevailing meter.
@metcon(optional)Indicates the relationship between the content of a measure and the prevailing meter.
@control(optional)Indicates whether or not a bar line is "controlling"; that is, if it indicates a point of alignment across all the parts. Bar lines within a score are usually controlling; that is, they "line up". Bar lines within parts may or may not be controlling. When applied to <measure>, this attribute indicates the nature of the right bar line but not the left.
@left(optional)Indicates the function of the left bar line.
@right(optional)Indicates the function of the right bar line.
@when(optional)Indicates the point of occurrence of this feature along a time line. Its value must be the ID of a <when> element elsewhere in the document.
@control(optional)Indicates whether or not a bar line is "controlling"; that is, if it indicates a point of alignment across all the parts. Bar lines within a score are usually controlling; that is, they "line up". Bar lines within parts may or may not be controlling. When applied to <measure>, this attribute indicates the nature of the right bar line but not the left.
@metcon(optional)Indicates the relationship between the content of a measure and the prevailing meter.
