Guitar-like notation problem

Hi everyone! I need some help with guitar-like notation. I’ve been searching for this symbol for a rasgueado-like movement, but the only thing I can do is what’s in the second screenshot, with the wavy line. I really need this line to be straight. What can I do?
Thank you all!

You could do that with a vertical line.
(if you want playback you could add a strum up playing technique, and hide it)

Thank you!

no, thats not a solution. please add the straight line with arrow.

Are you referring to wanting another kind of up arrow, other than either using the Vertical Line options or Guitar Playing technique Strum up …


(Write mode, Right zone, Playing techniques, Guitar)

or (probably less useful for this purpose) using Shift-P (input a Playing technique) and typing: Strum up

thanks, didnt see that one.

No problems! If you had something else in mind, then the Dorico team need it explicitly explained so they know what you are referring to, its purpose, perhaps a published reference and why (as opposed to what is already available) so they can make a decision about including it (or not) in a future update :slight_smile:
