Hey all! Trying to use the rolled chord arrow with a rhythm slash. I can’t find a way to make it attach.
So I’d like to use the upward rolled symbol. Select and click, nothing appears to happen.
Any tips?
Dorico is calling it an arpeggiation. You can see it in the graphic in my post. I was told they’re called rolled chords. Maybe I have the term wrong though?
I can’t get it to appear at all. Did you add it to something else first?
No, just with the note selected. What instrument is it? Could be a problem with percussion

This is not correct; @YourMusic.Pro has the right answer, below.
Adding on to @jesele’s advice, it looks like an actual arpeggio symbol requires at least two notes, and they can’t be in a slash voice. Edit: No, as @jesele indicates, you can add it to a single note, just not in a slash voice.
If you add the lift ornament, as @jesele suggests, then you can adjust it in Engrave mode so it’s vertical and looks like an arpeggio.

If you want an actual arpeggio symbol, another approach is to put your diamond notes into a non-slash voice and then just change their noteheads to oversized slash noteheads. Then add a regular note underneath (either as part of a chord or in a different voice), add the arpeggio between the two notes, and hide the lower notehead in Engrave mode.

That’s what I’m seeing for sure. Nothing appears.
Ok…well that’s annoying hahaha. I’ll do the gliss thing I guess.
It’s piano. I can attach the file but it looks like @asherber is seeing the same problem.
What instrument is this? And are the notes in a slash voice, or a regular voice with slash noteheads? If it’s a slash voice, I don’t think you can use an arpeggio.
Piano, and a slash voice. I’ll try the gliss thing, or maybe the hidden note idea.
Still won’t work with slash voices. Use a regular voice and change the notehead to an oversized slash notehead.

I think it does work, I remember you need to switch it on somewhere!
Do you know where? I’m not finding anything.
Unless they allow this with slashes, this is giving me the best result. Thanks!
Me neither.

Perfect.

Not wanting to appear pedantic or vain, but it would be helpful to change the “solved” marker… ![]()
Update: Oops…got it. It defaults to a length of 0. Had to change it to ~3 to get it to look right.
This looks like what I was looking for!
Thanks!
