The problem with just enlarging the existing fermata is that the lines got
way too thick and the symbol looked ridiculous at the size I needed it to
be. I noticed in my Baerenreiter Mozart scores that they have designed
their own narrower line version to place as an "umbrella" over many notes. I
wondered if anyone had a good design they'd be willing to share; mine is ok,
but it looks a wimpy since it doesn't have at least a gentle broadening of
the line in the middle.
Christopher, thanks for the info on smart line; if that's something that's
been there this whole time and I never knew it, then I'm just an idiot!
You have to admit that it's a little counter-intuitive to go through smart
shape options to get to that dialogue box, though; it seems the first time
you click on a smart shape line that the dialogue should be triggered, just
like dynamics or articulations.
Michael
