MusicXML Export: exporting layout attributes

Dorico

Hi,

I recognized that the Dorico .MusicXML export doesn’t support exporting layout attributes such as “default-x”, “default-y” or “width” values (e.g. measure width). Finale was able to export these values.

Are there any plans to add a setting to let the user choose whether these values are getting exported as well?

Thanks and best regards

In general our plan is not to add options for export: we will export everything that it makes sense to include, and it’s up to the importing application to determine what to do with that data. In general our MusicXML export has focused on semantic information rather than graphical information, but we have no philosophical objection to including more graphical information in MusicXML export: it is simply a matter of time and relative priority.
