Description

Your idea

It would be great to have a few more ‘presets’ for the Keyboard palette:

  • Ped. with slanted end hook
  • una corda/tre corde
  • Sost. Ped.
  • Ped. ad lib.
  • senza Ped.
  • poco Ped.
  • molto Ped.
  • sempre con Ped.
Problem to be solved

Having quick access to these standard Pedal indications would improve workflow for piano composition.

Prior art

This is an issue in other typesetting apps as well.
