Hotkeys:

• select a region, then press Alt-Gray Plus and Minus
  to align and move dynamic marks up and down, with hairpins.

• press Alt-Gray Multiply to align only.

• The Gray keys are on the numeric keypad. On the Mac, use
  the Apple key instead of Alt.

Features:

• aligns dynamics: staff and score expressions, and hairpins
• straightens hairpins
• automatically enables individual positioning of score expressions
  to make independent alignment \par in each staff system possible
• moves other expressions along with the dynamics, but does not
  align them: note the word "subito" and "poco" in the above example.
• especially useful with transposed parts

Note:

• when turning the score's display in concert pitch on and off, the
  plug-in cannot immediately recognize this.
  To make the change detectable to TGTools, please enter the
  Options menu once more (without selecting any item) after having
  changed this option. Otherwise, some hairpins will not align correctly.

1. move hairpins to align with expressions (as in the example)

• turn off "For positioning, take into account: Hairpins?"
• turn off "Adjust other expressions appropriately"
• otherwise stick to the defaults

2. move expressions to align with hairpins

• turn off "For positioning, take into account: Staff expressions?"
• otherwise stick to the defaults
