I'm sure I've asked about this in the past and I have at one time made it work, but I can't seem to turn on whatever it is that activates dynamic markings in the score.

I can place accents and change tempo, but dynamics just don't happen in my scores.

Is there some little check mark I forgot to click? Please, if you know the answer you could make me very happy.

Yes, I do.

But turning it off doesn't seem to have any effect. I'll try again now.

Nope. Turning it off has no effect at all. I tried changing dynamic from very loud to very soft - - nothing changed at all, it's all loud. (Of couse, the music is scored for two trumpets and two trombones...)
