Thickness of glissando line

How do I change the thickness of the glissando line?
Apologies for the basic question.

Globally in Engraving Options > Glissando Lines.

Is it possible to adjust the look of the wiggly glissando line? I’d like to spread the segments out a bit.

You can try to replace the glissando wiggle segment under Library→Music Symbols→Multi-segment lines.

Edit: Hm, It doesn’t seem to work.

Yea. I tried that too. I can’t seem to find the symbol Dorico is using.

It seem it using the music font. If you switch to Finale Ash it looks like this. So not sure if you can change only the gliss wiggly line font. Maybe not implemented yet, since the Music symbol ought to work.

To change the glyph which Dorico uses for a wiggly glissando line, go to Library > Music Symbols and search for Wiggle trill fastest, which uses U+EAA0 as the default glyph. If this glyph is replaced by the augmentation dot (U+E1E7), then the wiggly glissando line looks like this:

The default glyph can be replaced by a longer wiggly segment, but I don’t know how to increase the repeat offset so the longer segments don’t overlap too much.

I’m far from certain, but is it here?

That dialog can change the appearance of line bodies, but it doesn’t seem to affect wiggly glissando lines.
