Where can I change the glyph used for glissando lines?
I tried going to Engrave > Music Symbols > Multi-segment line > Wavy segment of glissando, and replaced it with Chaconne Ex’s U+EAA9 (the same glyph used for trills and arrpegios).
However, it still looks like Dorico is using Bravura’s default U+EAA0 or U+EAB0 in the actual score.
Here’s how it looks in Dorico:
And here’s what I’m aiming for, exported from Finale:
Is there another place I need to change this?
If I may say so, I find that the crooked decrescendo doesn’t really help the reading.
Perhaps placing it (horizontal) between the two staves would be ideal ?
On the other hand, I don’t indicate my harp glissandi with this wavy line, but with a straight line topped by the word ‘gliss.’
But no doubt you want it that way.
Thank you. Tilting dynamics to follow the musical shape is already quite common in many published scores—especially for piano and harp—and I believe performers are generally familiar with this kind of notation.
That said, I’m primarily a music engraver myself, and the Finale screenshot I shared was actually taken from someone else’s file.
Personally, I find it less elegant when the glissando line and the dynamics collide.
I don’t think notation—both in terms of appearance and design—should be limited by the software being used. If Finale can handle this kind of engraving, I’d expect Dorico to be able to as well. (That’s why the release of Chaconne Ex was such a long-awaited milestone for me.)
I agree with you. (note I don’t use Dorico on a daily basis either).
My friendly comment about the glissando indication comes from the fact that I’m French, and in France we love the harp ! 
I indicated how Debussy and Ravel notate them.
