att.visualOffset

Visual offset attributes. Some items may have their location recorded in terms of offsets from their programmatically-determined location. The ho attribute records the horizontal offset while vo records the vertical. The to attribute holds a timestamp offset, the most common use of which is as an alternative to the ho attribute.

MEI.shared
Attributes
@ho, @vo
@ho(optional)Records a horizontal adjustment to 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.
<att.visualOffset>att.visualOffset.ho@ho
@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.
<att.visualOffset>att.visualOffset.vo@vo
(MEI.shared) Horizontal offset attributes.
@ho(optional)Records a horizontal adjustment to 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.
(MEI.shared) Vertical offset attributes.
@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.

@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.
Available at
<arpeg>Indicates that the notes of a chord are to be performed successively rather than simultaneously, usually from lowest to highest. Sometimes called a "roll".
<artic>An indication of how to play a note or chord.
<breath>An indication of a point at which the performer on an instrument requiring breath (including the voice) may breathe.
<caesura>Break, pause, or interruption in the normal tempo of a composition. Typically indicated by "railroad tracks", i.e., two diagonal slashes.
<clef>Indication of the exact location of a particular note on the staff and, therefore, the other notes as well.
<dir>An instruction expressed as a combination of text and symbols, typically above, below, or between staves, but not on the staff — that is not encoded elsewhere in more specific elements, like <tempo>, <dynam> or <repeatMark>.
<dynam>Indication of the volume of a note, phrase, or section of music.
<f>Single element of a figured bass indication.
<fermata>An 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'.
<fing>An individual finger in a fingering indication.
<gliss>A continuous or sliding movement from one pitch to another, usually indicated by a straight or wavy line.
<hairpin>Indicates continuous dynamics expressed on the score as wedge-shaped graphics, e.g., < and >.
<halfmRpt>A half-measure repeat in any meter.
<harm>An indication of harmony, e.g., chord names, tablature grids, harmonic analysis, figured bass.
<harpPedal>Harp pedal diagram.
<lv>A "tie-like" indication that a note should ring beyond its written duration.
<mNum>Designation, 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.
<mordent>An ornament indicating rapid alternation of the main note with a secondary note, usually a step below, but sometimes a step above.
<mRest>Complete measure rest in any meter.
<octave>An indication that a passage should be performed one or more octaves above or below its written pitch.
<ornam>An element indicating an ornament that is not a mordent, turn, or trill.
<pedal>Piano pedal mark.
<reh>In an orchestral score and its corresponding parts, a mark indicating a convenient point from which to resume rehearsal after a break.
<repeatMark> An instruction expressed as a combination of text and symbols – segno and coda – typically above, below, or between staves, but not on the staff.
<rest>A non-sounding event found in the source being transcribed.
<slur>Indication of 1) a "unified melodic idea" or 2) performance technique.
<syl>Individual lyric syllable.
<symbol>A reference to a previously defined symbol.
<tabDurSym>A visual indication of the duration of a <tabGrp>.
<tempo>Text and symbols descriptive of tempo, mood, or style, e.g., "allarg.", "a tempo", "cantabile", "Moderato", "♩=60", "Moderato ♩ =60").
<tie>An indication that two notes of the same pitch form a single note with their combined rhythmic values.
<trill>Rapid alternation of a note with another (usually at the interval of a second above).
<turn>An ornament consisting of four notes — the upper neighbor of the written note, the written note, the lower neighbor, and the written note.
<arpeg>Indicates that the notes of a chord are to be performed successively rather than simultaneously, usually from lowest to highest. Sometimes called a "roll".
