2. Move the pedal lines or handles in any of the following ways:
● Press Alt-Right Arrow to move pedal lines and handles to the right.
● Press Alt-Left Arrow to move pedal lines and handles to the left.
● Press Alt-Up Arrow to move whole pedal lines upwards.
● Press Alt-Down Arrow to move whole pedal lines downwards.
TIP
If you want to move items by larger increments, you can press Ctrl/Cmd as well as
the standard key command, for example, Ctrl/Cmd-Alt-Left Arrow.
●
Click and drag them in any direction.
RESULT
The selected pedal lines or handles are moved to new graphical positions.
TIP
The following properties in the Pedal Lines group of the Properties panel are activated
automatically when you move pedal lines in the corresponding directions:
● Start X offset moves the start of pedal lines horizontally.
● End X offset moves the end hooks of pedal lines horizontally.
● Y offset moves whole pedal lines vertically.
X offset in the Pedal Line Retakes group of the Properties panel is activated automatically when
you move pedal retakes or pedal level changes horizontally.
For example, if you move a whole pedal line to the right, both handles are moved, so Start X
offset and End X offset are both activated. You can also use all of these properties to move
pedal lines, retakes, and pedal level changes, and lengthen/shorten pedal lines graphically, by
changing the values in the value elds.
Deactivating the properties resets the selected pedal lines to their default positions.
