Positions of pedal lines
You can change the positions of pedal lines individually and by changing their default positions
project-wide. For example, you can override the default position for individual pedal lines to be
further away from the staff if notes at those positions require more vertical space below the staff.
You can move pedal lines to different rhythmic positions in Write mode. They are positioned by
default according to your settings in Engraving Options.
You can move pedal lines graphically in Engrave mode. However, this does not change the
rhythmic positions to which they are attached.
NOTE
You cannot move retakes or pedal level changes rhythmically. You must remove them and input
a new retake or pedal level change at the position you want.
You can change the default positions of all pedal lines project-wide on the Pedal Lines page in
Engrave > Engraving Options. For example, you can change values for the minimum distances
between pedal lines and staves, pedal lines and other pedal lines, and the position of pedal lines
relative to noteheads and grace notes.

pedal level changes on the pedal lines are also moved.
NOTE
If you want to move retakes or pedal level changes independently of the pedal line, you must
rst remove them from their original positions and input new retakes or pedal level changes at
the new positions.
