If I understand you correctly, you are talking about a case where only one single part changes its tempo, while all the other parts continue at an un-changed tempo, right?
Nothing... I've created the new category, but when I edit that, it edits the original too... at the same time... they're still linked someway...Peter Thomsen wrote: ↑Tue May 12, 2020 7:56 pmIf I understand you correctly, you are talking about a case where only one single part changes its tempo, while all the other parts continue at an un-changed tempo, right?
You could create a custom expression category for that particular tempo mark only.
If I understand you correctly, you are not editing the new category itself, but rather editing the new category’s Score List, right?Lycant wrote: ↑Tue May 12, 2020 8:59 pmNothing...

Yes!!! That's exactly what I needed. Apparently all three methods works. Even that one about unchecking ''show'' (also I tried that yesterday but it didn't work... probably because I didn't follow in order all the passages.Peter Thomsen wrote: ↑Wed May 13, 2020 5:05 amIf I understand you correctly, you are not editing the new category itself, but rather editing the new category’s Score List, right?Lycant wrote: ↑Tue May 12, 2020 8:59 pmNothing...

And unfortunately both the new category and the old (Tempo Mark) category use the same Score List, right?
Two ideas:
1) The new category could use another Score List than the old (Tempo Mark) category.
Example: use Score List 1 in the old Tempo Mark category, and use Score List 2 in the new category.
2) You create a new category by duplicating an existing category.
If you duplicate the Tempo Mark category, then you get a new category of the {Score List} type.
But if you instead duplicate e. g. the Technique Text category, then you get a new category of the {no Score List} type.
Categories of the {no Score List} type do not have a Score List.
Instead, each instance of an expression can have its own - independent - Assignment List.
And you can have as many Assignment Lists as you like.
