Multiple Dynamics in one instrument
So I have a song that has div. with one part f and one part pp. But when I play it back, both parts are f. I tried making the parts voice 1 and voice 2 but they still come together as one.

Select a dynamic and open the Inspector> sets the dynamic as "Stave"
In reply to Select a dynamic and open the by Shoichi
It still doesn't work, let me try to make a better example...
If its not possible, its OK, just trying to make it more like the music. I also don't want to add another part just to fill in the div.

As I said, this doesn't work for voicees, but could get done by manually setting the notes' velocities

Following the advice of Jojo (attachments)
A method to apply a dynamic to just a voice is indeed missing. Only option currently is to manually adjust the notes' velocity in inspector
I think another option is to make the following (for a Piano piece): Create the score selecting Piano as the first instrument. Then, still in the Add Instruments dialog, Remove the second stave (Bass clef) of the piano. Click Next, etc. And add again the same Piano instrument, but this second time removing the treble clef (first stave). I tried that way and the dynamics markings for each stave sound independent.

Not really needed in that case, see Shoichi's post, and change the dynamics' range to staff in inspector

Hi Jojo,
Yes, yes, the method mentioned by Soichi works, but only until I change (again) the dynamic marking - at which momement I'm forced to open the inspector again and reassign.
I'm attaching a sample to understand what I mean. I even tried selecting all the markings (via Select all similar elements in the same staff..then changing to Staff as you and Soichi mention), but on playback the last C note in the treble part doesn't sound as pp . Musescore 2.0.2.

You aren't really supposed to ever close the Inspector - it's meant to be open all the time. So it shouldn't be a big inconvenience to assign a velocity to a dynamic marking - immediately after adding it via double click, it will automaticaqlly be selected, so a single click in the Inspector allows you to set the desired property. But if for some reason you have closed it, a single keystroke re-opens it (F8). So it's still only two clicks away.
The sort of thing shown in your example (different dynamic markings in different staves for the same part) is very uncommon in published music, so this shoudln't come up very often anyhow.

Well, yes. I don't have open the element inspector all times (I hate switching focus away from the score, but it's just a personal preference of course), and you're right that it's uncommon have different dinamics between bass and treble piano parts. I just wanted to give another option that for me seems valid and perhaps more easy, for this special case.
Thanks for the tips, Marc
(edited): the case I submitted has nothing to do with assigning separate dynamics for each voice inside the same staff. I just read the samples submitted minutes ago, it works pretty good - thanks again for this tip
