Attributes
@beatdef, @color, @expand, @glyph.auth, @glyph.name, @glyph.num, @glyph.uri, @label, @layer, @plist, @slash, @staff, @type, @xml:id
@beatdef(optional)Indicates the performed duration represented by the beatRpt symbol; expressed in time signature denominator units. Value is a decimal number.
<beatRpt>att.beatRpt.log@beatdef
@color(optional)Used to indicate visual appearance. Do not confuse this with the musical term 'color' as used in pre-CMN notation. Value conforms to data.COLOR.
<beatRpt>att.beatRpt.visatt.color@color
@expand(optional)Indicates whether to render a repeat symbol or the source material to which it refers. A value of 'true' renders the source material, while 'false' displays the repeat symbol. Value conforms to data.BOOLEAN.
<beatRpt>att.beatRpt.visatt.expandable@expand
@glyph.auth(optional)A name or label associated with the controlled vocabulary from which the value of @glyph.name or @glyph.num is taken, or the textual content of the element. Suggested values are: "smufl" (Standard Music Font Layout.)
<beatRpt>att.beatRpt.visatt.extSymatt.extSym.auth@glyph.auth
@glyph.name(optional)Glyph name. Value is plain text.
<beatRpt>att.beatRpt.visatt.extSymatt.extSym.names@glyph.name
@glyph.num(optional)Numeric glyph reference in hexadecimal notation, e.g., "#xE000" or "U+E000". N.B. SMuFL version 1.18 uses the range U+E000 - U+ECBF. Value conforms to data.HEXNUM.
<beatRpt>att.beatRpt.visatt.extSymatt.extSym.names@glyph.num
@glyph.uri(optional)The web-accessible location of the controlled vocabulary from which the value of @glyph.name or @glyph.num is taken, or the textual content of the element. Value conforms to data.URI.
<beatRpt>att.beatRpt.visatt.extSymatt.extSym.auth@glyph.uri
@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. Value is plain text.
<beatRpt>att.commonatt.labelled@label
@layer(optional)Identifies the layer to which a feature applies. One or more values of datatype positiveInteger, separated by spaces.
<beatRpt>att.beatRpt.logatt.eventatt.layerIdent@layer
@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.
<beatRpt>att.plist@plist
@slash(required)Indicates the number of slashes required to render the appropriate beat repeat symbol. When a single beat consisting of a single note or chord is repeated, the repetition symbol is a single thick, slanting slash; therefore, the value 1 should be used. When the beat is divided into even notes, the following values should be used: 4ths or 8ths=1, 16ths=2, 32nds=3, 64ths=4, 128ths=5. When the beat is comprised of mixed duration values, the default rendition is 2 slashes and 2 dots. Value conforms to data.BEATRPT.REND.

May Contain
– (<beatRpt> may not have child elements)
Remarks

<beatRpt> may also be used in guitar or rhythm parts to indicate where chord changes occur. When these parts require durations longer or shorter than a beat; however, <note> elements with appropriately-shaped note heads should be employed.
