What is it?
A <figure>
is any kind of graphic illustration. We mostly use it to encode the doodles and diagrams that can be found in the manuscripts. In some cases, when a <metamark>
is a graphic image that cannot be reduced to a (string of) character(s), it can also be used inside a <metamark>
tag.
Attributes
The <figure>
tag can have four attributes: @corresp
, @xml:id
, @n
, and @type
. To find out which attributes can be used in which circumstances (and which are required or optional in which cases), please refer to individual encoding instructions of doodles, diagrams, and <metamark>
.
