Hi,

I create a huge amount of next techniques in Dorico, but sometimes wonder if the equivalent already exist in the standard library. I propose to discuss them in this thread.

My first ones:

- Body strokes (strings)
- Pizzicato in peg box (strings)
- Pizzicato behind the bridge (on the tailpiece) (strings)

Is an equivalent technique already included in the library?

Paolo
