Thanks a lot for the observation! This works indeed for mving the dynamics to 
the staff. Unfortunately, in vocal music, it's often needed to move the 
dynamics inside the staff lines (see e.g. the attached image, taken from a 
hand-engraved Berlioz score), which is not possible with this approach. The 
vertical movement can only move the dynamics away from the staff, but not 
inside the staff...

Is there any way to move the dynamics inside the staff like in the picture?

Cheers,
Reinhold
