@accid.ges(optional)Records the performed pitch inflection. Value conforms to data.ACCIDENTAL.GESTURAL.
<chordMember>att.chordMember.gesatt.accidental.ges@accid.ges
@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.
<chordMember>att.commonatt.labelled@label
@oct(optional)Captures written octave information. Value conforms to data.OCTAVE.
<chordMember>att.chordMember.logatt.pitchedatt.octave@oct
@pname(optional)Contains a written pitch name. Value conforms to data.PITCHNAME.
<chordMember>att.chordMember.logatt.pitchedatt.pitch@pname
@tab.course(optional)Records which course is to be played. Value conforms to data.COURSENUMBER.
<chordMember>att.chordMember.logatt.stringtab@tab.course
@tab.fing(optional)This attribute is deprecated and will be removed in a future version. Indicates which finger, if any, should be used to play an individual string. The index, middle, ring, and little fingers are represented by the values 1-4, while t is for the thumb. The values x and o indicate muffled and open strings, respectively. Value conforms to data.FINGER.FRET.
<chordMember>att.chordMember.logatt.stringtab@tab.fing
@tab.fret(optional)Records the location at which a string should be stopped against a fret. Value conforms to data.FRETNUMBER.
<chordMember>att.chordMember.logatt.stringtab@tab.fret
@tab.line(optional)Used in German lute tablature in cases where vertical positioning deviates from the norm which can be specified by @tab.align. Indicates the position of the tab note on one of the horizontal strands corresponding to the @lines attribute on <staffDef>. (Note that in this case, the lines are conceptual rather than visible). Value conforms to data.CLEFLINE.

Remarks

The @string, @fret, and @fing attributes are provided in order to create displayable chord tablature grids. The @inth (harmonic interval) attribute may be used to facilitate automated performance of a chord. It gives the number of diatonic steps above the bass. Of course, for the bass note itself, @inth should be set to P1.
