Moving pedal lines rhythmically

You can move pedal lines to new rhythmic positions after they have been input. Any retakes or pedal level changes on the pedal lines are also moved.

Note

If you want to move retakes or pedal level changes independently of the pedal line, you must first remove them from their original positions and input new retakes or pedal level changes at the new positions.

Procedure

  1. In Write mode, select the pedal lines you want to move.
    Note

    When using the mouse, you can only move one pedal line rhythmically at a time.

  2. Move the pedal lines in any of the following ways:

    • To move a single pedal line to the next notehead on the staff, press Alt/Opt-Right Arrow.

    • To move a single pedal line to the previous notehead on the staff, press Alt/Opt-Left Arrow.

    • To move them to the right according to the current rhythmic grid resolution, press Ctrl/Cmd-Alt/Opt-Right Arrow.

    • To move them to the left according to the current rhythmic grid resolution, press Ctrl/Cmd-Alt/Opt-Left Arrow.

      Note

      When multiple pedal lines are selected, you can only move them according to the current rhythmic grid resolution.

    • Click and drag the pedal line to the right/left.

Result

The selected pedal lines are moved to new rhythmic positions.

Note

Pedal lines can only be moved along staves. If you want to move a pedal line across staves, you must delete the pedal line and input a new pedal line on the other staff.
