First, I want to say - I love the player group label feature. It’s incredibly useful and is so much easier than implementing this in any other program/fashion.
One question, though - is there any way to force the player group label to show the full group name and include a bracket, regardless of the number of instruments in that group? I have a situation (probably not uncommon) where one instrument is offstage. If I set the short group name to “OFFSTAGE” then nothing shows; an abbreviation such as “OFF” is short enough that the text shows, but the bracket doesn’t (see photo).
Luckily, in this score there is plenty of vertical space to show the full word and bracket whenever this occurs, but I can’t see a way to tell Dorico to show it.
