Issue with positioning text

• Jun 12, 2025 - 09:16

Having a bit of trouble positioning text - driving me mad!

The first screenshot shows the opening bars of my piece. All I want to do is add a simple expression mark to the opening. However, whenever I type in an expression mark, it ends up "attached" to the hairpin as shown in the second screenshot.

Any ideas how to avoid this?

Can upload entire score if it helps!

Cheers

Stuart

Select this expression text/mark, and in the Properties panel, at "Position", click on "Above" (or simply type shortcut "X")?
And if you prefer another location (?), untick "Auto-place" (still in Properties panel).
