Pedal line start signs, hooks, and continuation lines

Pedal lines normally comprise a start sign, a continuation line, and an end hook. This indicates clearly to performers where to depress each type of pedal, how long to keep it depressed, and where to lift it.

In Dorico Elements, you can change the appearance of each part of pedal lines both individually and for all pedal lines project-wide. For example, you can show all pedal lines with a glyph as their start sign, but change the start sign of an individual pedal line to show text instead.

You can select any whole pedal line in Write mode and change most aspects of their appearance according to the type of pedal line, such as their continuation line or start sign.
