Hiding immediate dynamics
You can hide immediate dynamics such as and , for example, if you only want to show an
expressive text, such as “sim.”, without the immediate dynamic that accompanies it.
PROCEDURE
1. Select the immediate dynamics you want to hide.
2. In the Properties panel, activate Hide intensity marking in the Dynamics group.
RESULT
The selected immediate dynamics are hidden. If no other dynamic exists at their rhythmic
position, they are indicated by signposts so you can always nd them again. However, signposts
are not printed by default.
Deactivating Hide intensity marking shows the selected immediate dynamics again.
