Changing the end appearance of arpeggio signs

Down arpeggio signs have an arrowhead at the bottom of the line by default, but up arpeggio signs have no arrowhead by default. You can change the appearance of the ends of arpeggio signs individually.

Note

These steps only apply to up and down arpeggio signs. They do not apply to curved or non arpeggio signs.

Procedure

  1. Select the arpeggio signs of any direction whose ends you want to change.
  2. In the Properties panel, activate Sign end in the Arpeggios group.
  3. Select the end you want from the menu:

    • Nothing

    • Arrow

    • Swash

Result

The appearance of the ends of the selected arpeggio signs is changed.
