Use this procedure to adjust the default
opening for any additional hairpin shapes you place into the score.
- Choose Smart Shape > Smart Shape
Options. The Smart Shape Options dialog box appears.
- Enter a value in the Crescendo Opening Width text box. All of your crescendo or decrescendo symbols
will have an opening of the size you specified, unless they have been
manually edited. You can select the measurement unit in the Units drop-down
menu.
- Edit the Line Thickness text box, in the Crescendo/Decrescendo
section of the Smart Shape Options dialog box. This number controls
the thickness of the actual straight lines that compose the hairpin shape.
