"Group Dynamics" sometimes deletes dynamics

Hi,

Has anyone else has the issue where “group dynamics” will actually delete the dynamics from the score? It’s the second time it’s happened to me.

Also, sometimes grouping dynamics just doesn’t work, the system ignores the command and does not align things.

It’s because you have linking turned on for copied dynamics, or they’re part of a different group.

I typically turn off linking, and I’ll select a large area of dynamics, Remove From Group, and then Group Dynamics.
