Attribute: top-staff

Description

The top-staff and bottom-staff elements are used when the brace does not  extend across the entire part. For example, in a 3-staff organ part, the top-staff will typically be 1 for the right hand, while the bottom-staff will typically be 2 for the left hand. Staff 3 for the pedals is usually outside the brace.
