Hi, I have been struggling with the piano sustain. It keeps moving on me. And now there is a strange pedal mark (screenshot attached) which I cannot remove. If I use the popover and type nonotch it dissappears from that note and replaces the previous retake. It is driving me mad.
Just to follow up, I have tried ging into Engrave-Notations. But it is a bug. I cannot put a pedal retake into the last 8 measures.
Can you attach the project itself here so we can take a look?

I don’t know if this gives the result which you want, but try the following:
Go into Engrave mode, navigate to the last page and zoom in. I found 400% to be suitable.
Click on the upward-sloping part of the pedal line in bar 98. Three edit handles will appear.
Select the edit handle on the upper part of the pedal line - I have indicated it in the first screenshot.
Drag that handle down until it is level with the preceding part of the pedal line.
In the final bar (104), click on the vertical part of the pedal line (see the second screenshot).
Drag the rightmost edit handle down until it is horizontal.
Edit:
Even easier - in Engrave mode, click on the very end of the pedal line (bar 104), open Properties and in the Pedal Lines section, de-select End level, or set its value to 1.
Yes that worked. Are you able to tell my why this happened? was it something I inadvertently did?
Thank you.
My guess is that you have inadvertently moved one or more of those edit handles in Engrave mode, either by dragging with the mouse, moving using alt/opt + arrow keys, or enabling/disabling attributes in Properties and/or changing their values. It happens to me from time to time, usually when I try things at random and forget what I have done.
