GIT commit: 170d4c5

Background: I want to change a system text to look like a dynamic text and this does not work.
Test case, see TestStave.gif and the standard text properties for Dynamic Text (DynamicText.gif) and a System text (SystemText.gif). Now I change the 'Style' to Dynamic Text (TestStaveChanged.gif and SystemTextChanged.gif). Although the properties look the same, the look and the font are different.

SystemTextChanged.gif actually shows the style settings for Dynamics

Why not just select that system text and in Inspector change to Dynamics style?

Dynamics are special. They use not the ordinary letters of the alphabet, but special glpyhs that are only available for those specific letters. To enter them, you can press Ctrl+Shift+F, etc
