Hi all,

To get the little circle on the end of the decresc. hairpin, I usually attach a little letter "o" expression to it, but it usually ends up wandering around the page of its own accord...

Is there a better way (that's not too laborious lol)?

Best wishes,
Hector Pascal.

Yes. Use an empty smart shape with circle as the start and as the end. Than align both vertically and horizontally with the hairpin. They will follow together.
