Description

Issue type

UX/Interaction bug (incorrect behaviour)

Bug description

Dynamics overlap when multiple dyamics are chosen for one note. (or multiple if multiple are selected)

The correct behavior, as I understand it, should be that the dynamics change to the newest chosen.

Steps to reproduce
  1. Click on a note/select multiple notes over different staffs
  2. Assign a dynamic to these notes
  3. (Perhaps deselect)
  4. If step 3 is needed then reselect
  5. Assign dynamics to the note(s)
  6. Notice how the dynamic markings will overlap and stack infinitly (if clicked an infinit amount of times)
Screenshots/Screen recordings

Regression

I don't know

Operating system

Windows 10

Additional context

If you where to select the dynamic instead of the note, it behaves correctly and the dynamic is changed as intend.
The problem is that it's impossible to select just the dynamic over multiple staffs.
Clicking on every dynamic seperately is a little more tedious.
