Playing Technic with line break

Hello,

is there a way to create a text playing technic with more than one line? For example:

with flat hand
on mouthpiece

Thank you for your answers in advance.

Best regards

Rainer

As far as I know that’s not possible. You’d have to add that as staff text (Shift+X).

edit: John shows it is possible below… I’d probably still use staff text :grimacing:

Create a new playing technique, change the Type to Glyph and click on the pencil icon. In the Edit Playing Technique dialog, delete the existing text and click on the Text tab in the upper right corner of the dialog. For each line, type the text where it says Enter text here and click the button Add Text. Click on the Attachments tab in the lower left corner of the dialog and change the upper and lower attachments to Bottom Left and Top Left, respectively. Then click on the Component tab and change the Y-Offset to increase the space between the lines:
