Horizontal layout for multiple techniques at the same position?

Hi all,

Is there a way to get multiple techniques at the same position to sit horizontally instead of stacked? Please see attached.

Tucking index only reorders them vertically. Am I missing a setting?

Thanks!

Welcome to the forum, @JIAHAO_LIU!

I don’t think you’ll find a function that places them horizontally (and also adds commas!).

What you can do (if playback matters) is enter your playing techniques and hide them[1].

Then you can enter them the way you want as staff text. In that case, you could create a “Playing techniques” Paragraph Style that matches the characteristics of the “Playing Techniques” Font Style (and the Engraving Options for the distance from the staff), and apply that paragraph style to your text.

(About div., I’m not sure if you use the divisi feature (which is not a playing technique) or if you just want to write it as a text indication — that you can create as a playing technique if you use it often).
