Multi-staff dynamic input bug

When inputting dynamics across multiple staves using the caret, and you enter a combined absolute + gradual dynamic into the popover:

then after hitting Enter, every staff except the top one receives a short, stubby hairpin:

that stays this way when input is continued.

For clarity, the top staff here shows the expected (and desired) behaviour. If you first enter the p separately, then re-open the popover for the hairpin, there’s no problem.

I can confirm that I was able to reproduce that bug on my end as well.

Seeing the different way the dynamics were highlighted inadvertently provided me with a nice additional datapoint: the bug only occurs when Link dynamics and slurs to existing items when pasting under Preferences > Note Input and Editing is switched off.

Nice find, @hrnbouma. Yes I can reproduce this, with that preference switched off.
