> So, `chord@ho` and `note@ho` could cancel out each other when opposite values. Yes. (But then the note head will be disconnected from (or overlap with) the stem, so one...

### option Add the `--mensural-score-up` boolean in the `mensural` option group (false by default). Start [here](https://github.com/rism-digital/verovio/blob/248cdfdd60f46bb9ba4a42f26ba36e9aec7ba4eb/include/vrv/options.h#L837-L843) and also add it in the implementation `options.cpp` file. This should be it. Then...

@martha-thomae could you resolve the conflicts? (I would recommend not to leave the PR for too long since it might become difficult to do so)

We can wait for `@hdist` (and for `@vdist` too if necessary). They seem similar to `@ho` and `@vo` except for when they need to be taken into account. This is...

I would like to re-open this issue since this now starts to be a problem for Verovio. We have some contradictory interpretations for `@ho`, namely if the value should be...
