Feature Request: Add System Text Option – Position Below Pedal Line

Hello,

Currently, Dorico does not provide an option to automatically place system text below the pedal line.

  • By default, pressing f positions system text above the pedal line.
  • Users must manually reposition the text each time, which is inefficient and reduces productivity.
  • This manual adjustment can also lead to inconsistent engraving and visual clutter, particularly when pedal markings and text overlap.

Proposed Improvement

Introduce a system text placement option that allows users to automatically position text below the pedal line.

Benefits

  • :musical_score: Ensures consistent and professional score layout
  • :stopwatch: Saves time by reducing repetitive manual adjustments
  • :white_check_mark: Improves clarity and readability of notation

Thank you for your consideration!
