Merging pedal lines

You can merge existing sustain pedal lines together; for example, if you want to fill in a gap between two sustain pedal lines.

Note

These steps only apply to sustain pedal lines.

Procedure

  1. Select the sustain pedal lines on the same staff that you want to merge together.
    Note

    You can only merge pedal lines on one staff at a time.

  2. Choose Edit > Notations > Pedal Lines > Merge Pedal Lines. You can also choose this option from the context menu.

Result

The selected pedal lines are merged together into a single pedal line.

For sustain pedal lines with line continuation types, retakes are added at the start position of each merged pedal line.
