You can change the thickness of continuation lines individually, 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.

Prerequisite

  • The lower zone is shown.

  • Properties is selected in the lower zone toolbar.

  • Graphic Editing Graphic Editing button is selected in the Engrave toolbox.

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

Procedure

  1. In Engrave mode, select the pedal lines whose continuation line thickness you want to change.
  2. In the Properties panel, activate Line width in the Pedal Lines group.

    The value resets to 0 automatically when you first activate the property.

  3. Change the value in the value field.

Result

Increasing Line width makes pedal continuation lines thicker, decreasing the value makes pedal continuation lines thinner. 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 thickness for all pedal continuation lines project-wide in Engraving Options > Pedal Lines > Design.
