Dot and accid elements change xml:id

[martha-thomae]

When uploading a parts-MEI file, the @xml:id values of the <dot> elements are not preserved, they change when exporting either the parts or the score MEI files. Here is a file to test this.

Same issue with <accid> elements

Hi @martha-thomae - is this still an issue?

[martha-thomae]

Yes, this is still an issue. It also happens with the ids of other elements. Here is the complete list:

• <surface>
• <graphic>
• <zone>
• <pb>
• <sb>
• <accid>
• <dot>
• <ligature>
• <barLine>
• <verse>
• <syl>

I put in bold letters the ones that are more important to preserve their ids.

Another proposed solution is to go directly into the score editor when uploading a file coming from another application. (@JRegimbal will help me look into this :) )
