directive

The directive attribute changes the default-x position of a direction. It indicates that the left-hand side of the direction is aligned with the left-hand side of the time signature. If no time signature is present, it is aligned with the left-hand side of the first music notational element in the measure. If a default-x, justify, or halign attribute is present, it overrides the directive attribute.
