You can open the dynamics popover in Write mode in any of the following ways when either an item is selected or the caret is active:

• Press Shift-D.

• In the Notations toolbox, click Popovers , then Dynamics .

• Select an existing dynamic and press Return.

• Choose Write > and thenCreate Dynamic.

The dynamics popover comprises the following:

1. Popover handle

   Allows you to move the popover vertically by clicking and dragging.

2. Popover icon

   Identifies the dynamics popover. Matches the corresponding button in the Notations toolbox on the right of the window.

3. Popover entry field

   Allows you to enter dynamics.

   Note

   • To input a parenthesized dynamic, enclose its entry in round brackets, such as (f).

   • Pairs of separate hairpins are treated differently than messa di voce hairpins. For example, separate hairpins each have start and end handles in Write mode, whereas messa di voce hairpins share a single center handle.

4. Local/Global indicator

   Indicates whether you are inputting locally only into the voice indicated by the caret indicator or globally for all voices belonging to the selected instruments. Allows you to change the scope using the mouse.
