So that would make it a rather easy fix, an additional field in the Glissando Inspector and another in the Edit Style dialog. Only for the straight glissando though I guess, the wiggly one is not drawing using a line, but by using a (set of) SMuFL glyph(s)
I still don't know how to deal with the inspector redesign. Should the inspector be updated by this PR, or is it not worth it? Easy fix in edistyle though.
I don't see this functionality yet in 4.0, so I was hoping to poke here for it. I'm creating a lead sheet with several slides, and the glissando lines are very thin. Usually, it's a minor issue, but in cases where it's a short slide, the glissando has very little angle, which makes it blend with the staff lines. In particular, on my staff with rhythmic slash notation, the slides between those are almost straight (see attachment). I have resorted to dragging both ends of all of these to increase the slant so they stand out a bit more, but this is VERY tedious when there are a lot of them; the offset trick mentioned here helps a bit, but a thicker line configuration for the whole score (i.e. change the default) would be more natural and wouldn't require any manual intervention.

It looks like it is already there, but not accessible from the UI: https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/search?q=glissandoLineWidth&unsc…
Indeed it is:

This was done by manually modifying the attached .mscx.

Probably a question for Tantacrul to answer.
Probably depends much on whether this is intended for 3.x or for master?

Is there a way I can manually adjust it outside the UI in version 3.6 such as in this example?
There is no way inside the UI. You'd need to edit the mscx file and set the line wdth following the example above

Awesome! just got to know about how it works with the mscx. Should I change it back to mscz after modifying it?
No! just renaming things won't change the content. msxz is a (glorified) ZIP archive, containing an mscx.
See https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/7435
Fixed in branch 3.x, commit 8a8a234687
Fix #305387: Add spinner for controlling glissando line thickness in inspector
Missed 3.6.2 due to not wanting last minute additions of translatable strings.
So let's hope for 3.6.3 ;-)

These are great news! I learned about mscx files too, that is working good for now but the new implementation will make it way easier.
Automatically closed -- issue fixed for 2 weeks with no activity.
reopening as this seems needed for master too
Hi,
I don't see this functionality yet in 4.0, so I was hoping to poke here for it. I'm creating a lead sheet with several slides, and the glissando lines are very thin.

Any chance this is on the todo list?
Thanks!
