Any pitches that you input that do not t with the current harp pedal diagram are considered out

of range, and appear red when colors are shown for notes that are out of range. If you do not

input any harp pedaling, Dorico SE assumes all harp pedals are in their natural setting, as they

would be for C major.

In Dorico SE, you can input harp pedal diagrams using the playing techniques popover and you

can automatically generate accurate harp pedal diagrams based on an entire ow or a specic

passage of music. However, you can only input and show harp pedal diagrams on staves

belonging to harp instruments; if you copy material from harp staves to other instruments, harp

pedaling is automatically removed.

By default, harp pedaling is hidden in full score/custom score layouts and shown in part layouts.

In layouts where harp pedaling is hidden, harp pedal diagrams are indicated by signposts. You

can hide/show harp pedaling in each layout independently and hide individual harp pedal

diagrams in layouts where harp pedaling is shown. You can also determine when to show partial

harp pedaling, such as when only a single pedal must be changed at one time.

Harp pedal diagrams in Dorico SE affect the pitches played back in glissando lines.
