Element: pedal
Description
The pedal type represents piano pedal marks. The change and continue types are used when the line attribute is yes. The change type indicates a pedal lift and retake indicated with an inverted V marking. The continue type allows more precise formatting across system breaks and for more complex pedaling lines. The alignment attributes are ignored if the line attribute is yes.
