Music symbols & texts as line annotations don't have the same options for vertical attachment

This seems to be the manual workaround and works as long as you don’t change the font sizes of the playing technique font style!

Looks good, basically what I tried, but didn’t manage to get the vertical alignment to work.

Here is a Dorico project containing a custom line that works even if the font size of the playing technique font style is changed:
st to sp revised.dorico (1.2 MB)

The solution is to have the arrowhead as a center annotation with the Placement set to End, allowing the s.t. and s.p. line annotations to be text with the Vertical attachment set to Half x height.
