Creating a new 'Font Style'

[LSalgueiro]

Bumping an old thread because I just realized another way to create a new font style. (Maybe others already know this, but I didn’t see it posted.) In Engrave/Notehead Sets, create a new notehead set and click the Edit Notehead pencil to edit the default notehead that comes up. Add a glyph from whatever font you want to have selectable in Font Styles. You can then delete the notehead set if you want, and the font you selected will remain in Font Styles. Edit the Font Style to whatever settings you choose and it will now be available in Playing Techniques.

Basically any font you bring in should create a Font Style, so the method need not be so byzantine, but I must admit: it never occurred to me to do that just to get a new Font Style. Clever. Kudos, sir.
