Lengthening/Shortening gaps and dashes in pedal continuation lines
You can change the length of dashes and the gaps between dashes in individual dashed pedal continuation lines, independently of your project-wide settings. You can do this for the current layout and frame chain only or for all layouts and frame chains.
These steps only apply to pedal lines with dashed continuation lines.
Prerequisite
-
Graphic Editing is selected in the Engrave toolbox.
-
You have chosen the appropriate property scope for local properties.
Procedure
- In Engrave mode, select the pedal lines whose dashes you want to change.
-
In the Properties panel, activate the following properties, individually or together, in the Pedal Lines group.
-
Dash length
-
Dash gap length
-
- Change the values in the value fields.
Result
Increasing Dash length makes dashes in pedal continuation lines longer, decreasing the value makes dashes shorter.
Increasing Dash gap length makes gaps between dashes in pedal continuation lines longer, decreasing the value makes gaps shorter.
If the property scope was set to Locally, this change only takes effect in the current layout and frame chain.
You can find options that change the default dash length and default gap length for all dashed pedal continuation lines project-wide by clicking Advanced Options in the Design section of the Pedal Lines page in .
