Dash within part of a word

Hi. Normally when I use Muscore and want to split a syllable, for example fol-low, the dash is in the center of the word. I pulled in music via the PDF importer. It worked fine (except for triplets (not the problem now)), but when I enter the dash (like usual) it create the word as fol_low (as if U used control and dash). The dash is placed at the bottom and not center. How can it be fixed?
