Unlinking Dynamics Between Parts in Score

Hello! I’m very new to this forum. I tried to find an answer to this but couldn’t (perhaps there’s one out there).

I’m working on a band piece in Dorico (my first official work written in the software). I’m often copying one line to another and then changing the pitches if the lines are similar enough. If I later go in to add something like a slur, dynamic, etc. it adds it to the other parts too.

It’s not being consistent for me, so it’s causing me more trouble than help. Is there a way to unlink this? Coming from Finale, I’d prefer to enter these things manually. Thank you!

Welcome to the forum!

Is it possible that you selected multiple parts before adding a slur, dynamic or whatever? Linking, in my experience, only occurs when I do that. If I make sure that I only select the one note or notes on the one staff, then nothing links. I hope this makes sense.

Untick this preference.

Thank you!
