Feature Idea: Spelled Glissando for Harp

[sebastian_winter]

Hey,

It would be great if Dorico could handle spelled glissandi — meaning an option (in addition to straight or wavy lines) that automatically writes out the first 7 notes of the gliss. based on the current harp pedal setup.

Thanks!

fingers crossed that at some point we get a sort-of-automatic way of doing this. I totally understand that this will be VERY hard to implement, and also that there are a million ways to write the glissandi (even within the same piece.)

Note spacing issue in score with harp notation

Thank you for your input, it helped me thinking about it differently: I changed the rhythmic notation of the 7 notes to better align with the surrounding rhythm (16th), as a result the spacing became more uniform - before I had the gliss-notes set to very short note values.
