@corresp(optional)Used to point to other elements that correspond to this one in a generic fashion.
<expansion>att.commonatt.linking@corresp
@evaluate(optional)Specifies the intended meaning when a participant in a relationship is itself a pointer. Allowed values are: "all" (If an element pointed to is itself a pointer, then the target of that pointer will be taken, and so on, until an element is found which is not a pointer.), "one" (If an element pointed to is itself a pointer, then its target (whether a pointer or not) is taken as the target of this pointer.), "none" (No further evaluation of targets is carried out beyond that needed to find the element(s) specified in plist or target attribute.)
<expansion>att.targetEval@evaluate
@follows(optional)points to one or more events in a user-defined collection that are known to be predecessors of the current element.
<expansion>att.commonatt.linking@follows
@label(optional)Captures text to be used to generate a label for the element to which it’s attached, a "tool tip" or prefatory text, for example. Should not be used to record document content.
<expansion>att.commonatt.labelled@label

Member of
(expansion isn't member of any model class)
Contained By
<ending>Alternative ending for a repeated passage of music; i.e., prima volta, seconda volta, etc.
<lem>Contains the lemma, or base text, of a textual variation.
<rdg>Contains a single reading within a textual variation.
<section>Segment of music data.
<lem>Contains the lemma, or base text, of a textual variation.
<rdg>Contains a single reading within a textual variation.
<ending>Alternative ending for a repeated passage of music; i.e., prima volta, seconda volta, etc.
<section>Segment of music data.
May Contain
– (<expansion> may not have child elements)
Remarks

The @plist attribute contains an ordered list of identifiers of descendant <section>, <ending>, <lem>, or <rdg> elements. For example, the sequence "#A #End1 #A #End2" indicates that the section labelled 'A' comes first, then the ending labelled 'End1', followed by the 'A' section again, and finally the ending labelled 'End2'.
