Can I set the tempo using the toolkit "edit" function?

[andre2007]

Hi,

I try to find a way to set the the tempo (BPM) using the toolkit functions.

Best guess so far is, I can somehow use the edit function:
https://book.verovio.org/toolkit-reference/toolkit-methods.html#edit

My best guess is, I can use it like this:

toolkit.edit(`{"midi.bpm": 60}`);

( I tried different attribute names, with and without @ ... , also with attribute name data.MIDIBPM...)

But the effect is, that my program just silently terminate on this line.

From the documentation I am not able to find out, what I can exactly do with edit function
and what I can't.

Is it possible to somehow specify the tempo to be used?

Kind regards
André

The edit function is experimental and broken in many aspect, so do not rely on it. I added a comment in the code, which will show up in the reference book in the next release.

You should edit your MEI data instead.

Thanks, that is working fine.
