Description
Your idea
Add the half-barré line, where you only place your index finger between the high E and G strings, in the Guitar palette.
See: https://wikiless.tiekoetter.com/wiki/Barre_chord#Partial_barre_chords
Problem to be solved
Full barré is already present in the Guitar palette, while this variant is missing.
Prior art
No response
Additional context
Barré lines are symbolized with the C symbol, while half-barrés with ₵. The former is missing from MuseScore
