Rendering of neumes (that look like ligatures) #3724
Comments

Basically, anything that starts with a clivis or porrectus shape should have an initial stem on the starting note.
Basically, anything that starts with: <nc tilt="n"/>should have the stem rendered next to the note (not separated with a space as it currently is). This initial And all neumes that have more than one neume component, should have all their neume components connected to one another (with the exception of the rhombuses and repeated notes). See the example of a torculus with the highest neume component being more than a second apart:
An example of the encoding of the torculus in the middle would be: <neume>
<nc loc="4"/>
<nc loc="6"/>
<nc loc="3"/>
</neume> |

It would be helpful to have more "atomic" examples, with just one of each. I would also suggest to add some comments in the MEI for names you are using but that are not given in the MEI elements and attributes. For example, <neume>
<!-- clivis -->
<nc tilt="n"/>
<nc/>
</neume> |

Sure! Will work on adding these comments on the guidelines :) |
The rules for "ligatures"—neumes consisting of more than one neume component—are relatively simple in my opinion. I am using the following real piece for illustrating this (see the manuscript image and encoding):
@tilt=se) must not have connected lines. (You can see a few examples in the second system.)The file for this can be seen in the ECHOES project repo: https://github.com/ECHOES-from-the-Past/GABCtoMEI/blob/main/MEI_outfiles/antiphonae_ad_communionem/002_C02_benedicite-omnes_pem85041_square_SQUARE.mei. I am providing a cleaner version here:
