You can change the length of gaps in dashed/dotted slurs individually. You can do this for the current layout and frame chain only, or for all layouts and frame chains.
Prerequisite
-
The lower zone is shown.
-
Properties
is selected in the lower zone toolbar. -
Graphic Editing
is selected in the Engrave toolbox. -
You have chosen the appropriate property scope for local properties.
Procedure
- In Engrave mode, select the dashed/dotted slurs whose gap length you want to change.
-
In the Properties panel, activate one of the following properties in the Slurs group:
-
For dashed slurs, activate Dash gap length.
-
For dotted slurs, activate Dot gap length.
-
- Change the values in the value fields.
Result
Increasing the values makes the gaps between dashes/dots larger. Decreasing the values makes the gaps between dashes/dots smaller. If the property scope was set to Locally, this change only takes effect in the current layout and frame chain.
