[MEI-L] @dur on tuplet/tupletspan

[Roland, Perry (pdr4h)]

Hi Thomas,

You understand it correctly.  @dur on tuplet/tupletSpan encodes the total duration of the tuplet.  Its value is *not* inherited by the contained notes/rests/etc.

Do I understand this correctly?  @dur of tuplet/tupletspan encodes the
overal duration of a tuplet so that a "standard" triplet with three
eighth notes would have dur="4".  I could also imagine that contained
notes and rests would inherit @dur from the containing tuplet, like
with chords, but that wouldn't make too much sense for tupletspans
where there are no contained notes and rests in the DOM sense.
