other symbols, or show text.

NOTE
The pedal lines you select must be the same type, for example, only sustain pedal lines.

The options are different according to the type of pedal line selected.

Deactivating Sign appearance returns the selected pedal lines to your default setting for
start sign appearance.
You can change the default start sign appearance of all pedal lines project-wide on the
Pedal Lines page in Engrave > Engraving Options.
