Multimeasure rests
This example document contains three views of the same underlying music: a "full score" plus two parts as intended for individual musicians. In MNX, these are represented by three separate score objects.
Multimeasure rests are tied to a particular score. They live within the "multimeasureRests" object, and each rest defines its starting measure number and how long the rest lasts.
