Harp pedaling can be shown as a diagram or using note names. You can change the appearance of harp pedal diagrams individually, independently of your project-wide setting. You can do this for the current layout and frame chain only, or for all layouts and frame chains.

Prerequisite

  • Harp pedaling is shown in the current layout.

  • The lower zone is shown.

  • Properties is selected in the lower zone toolbar.

  • If you are in Engrave mode, Graphic Editing Graphic Editing button is selected in the Engrave toolbox.

  • You have chosen the appropriate property scope for local properties.

Procedure

  1. Select the harp pedal diagrams whose appearance you want to change. You can do this in Write mode and Engrave mode.
  2. In the Properties panel, activate Appearance in the Harp Pedals group.
  3. Choose one of the following options:
    • Diagram

    • Note Names

Result

The appearance of the selected harp pedal diagrams is changed in the current layout. If the property scope was set to Locally, this change only takes effect in the current layout and frame chain.

Tip

You can change the default appearance of harp pedaling in each layout independently in the Harp Pedaling section of the Players page in Layout Options.
