Harp pedal diagram
For a harp part in a score, I need to be able to input a harp pedal chart diagram that details the initial pedaling. Any ideas on how to incorporate that into a score?

A standard way of notating harp pedal is using text, so simply adding staff text (Ctrl+T, then manually position) would be one way. If you prefer a particular graphical representation, you could create the graphic in Inkscape or some other program then add that to your score. Or you could try one of the various harp fonts that are out there. Or you could try this plugin: https://musescore.org/en/project/harppedal2. It all depends on what you want the results to look like.
Best way is to use the font included with MuseScore, it would make the score portable and editable in other computer. Here is a plugin https://github.com/lasconic/harp_pedal_diagram/raw/master/harp_pedal_di… (right click, download, put in Documents/MuseScore2/Plugins, start MuseScore and activate it in Plugin> Plugin Manager, Run it in Plugin > Harp Diagram)
Feedback on this plugin is welcome, I'm not a harpist.
