Feedback

Found a bug, have suggestions or just wanna give me thumbs up 👍? Use this forum thread

This plugin can be used in musescore 4 (musescore 4 how-to), but the symbols created do not create correct playback, because the plugin API required to add customized dynamics symbols has not been implemented yet / is unclear (musescore 4.2 Beta, 26th Nov 2023), feel free to [pitch in]((https://musescore.org/en/node/335193).
