altsym, cutout, x, y

altsym(optional)Provides a way of pointing to a user-defined symbol. It must contain a reference to an ID of a symbolDef element elsewhere in the document. Value conforms to data.URI.

cutout(optional)"Cut-out" style. Allowed values are: "cutout" (The staff lines should not be drawn.)

x(optional)Encodes an x coordinate for a feature in an output coordinate system. When it is necessary to record the placement of a feature in a facsimile image, use the facs attribute. Value is a decimal number.

y(optional)Encodes a y coordinate for a feature in an output coordinate system. When it is necessary to record the placement of a feature in a facsimile image, use the facs attribute. Value is a decimal number.

att.altSym(MEI.usersymbols) Attributes supplying pointers to user-defined symbols.

altsym(optional)Provides a way of pointing to a user-defined symbol. It must contain a reference to an ID of a symbolDef element elsewhere in the document. Value conforms to data.URI.

att.cutout(MEI.cmn) Attributes that indicate how to render the staff lines of the measure containing an element belonging to this attribute class.

cutout(optional)"Cut-out" style. Allowed values are: "cutout" (The staff lines should not be drawn.)

att.xy(MEI.shared) Output coordinate attributes. Some elements may have their exact rendered *output* coordinates recorded. x and y attributes indicate where to place the rendered output. Recording the coordinates of a feature in a facsimile requires the use of the facs attribute.

x(optional)Encodes an x coordinate for a feature in an output coordinate system. When it is necessary to record the placement of a feature in a facsimile image, use the facs attribute. Value is a decimal number.

y(optional)Encodes a y coordinate for a feature in an output coordinate system. When it is necessary to record the placement of a feature in a facsimile image, use the facs attribute. Value is a decimal number.

MEI.cmnCommon Music Notation (CMN) repertoire component declarations.

cutout(optional)"Cut-out" style. Allowed values are: "cutout" (The staff lines should not be drawn.)

MEI.sharedComponent declarations that are shared between two or more modules.

x(optional)Encodes an x coordinate for a feature in an output coordinate system. When it is necessary to record the placement of a feature in a facsimile image, use the facs attribute. Value is a decimal number.

y(optional)Encodes a y coordinate for a feature in an output coordinate system. When it is necessary to record the placement of a feature in a facsimile image, use the facs attribute. Value is a decimal number.

MEI.usersymbolsUser-defined symbols component declarations.

altsym(optional)Provides a way of pointing to a user-defined symbol. It must contain a reference to an ID of a symbolDef element elsewhere in the document. Value conforms to data.URI.
