Is there a way to make the 8va lines generally to be visually as long as eg. a half note?
It looks a little confusing that the line stops abruptly, immediately after the note head and not at the place of the real duration of the octava up music.
Couldn’t find any setting in the engraving options…
Hi @AtsoAlmila , you can change (increase) this option globally:
menu Library → Engraving Options/Octave lines/Appearance/Minimum length for octave line:
Examples:
or of course, alternatively, on a case by case situation, drag the end point of the 8va line in Engrave mode to the desired position…
