I think you will get what you want if you put the hairpin in a separate Dynamics context. This way it doesn't care for the other dynamics items.
Maybe ...

Grr - Neil was faster ...

Ok I've missed that explanation before so thank you. I don't really care about the midi so your suggestion is possible (a pain but doable). Anyone know of a single line override?
Thanks

    Hello-
    I am forcing accidentals in a modal piece.  Time signature is 21/8
    so the measures are long.
    I wanted to do a multi-measure hairpin (decrescendo) but the
    hairpin stopped at the end of the first measure at the forced
    accidental (!).
    1] is there a way around this?
    2] is this a bug or really the way it's supposed to work or
    3] is the reason it stopped there different from my assumption.
    Thanks
    Jay

    ...from the NM p106
    " A crescendo mark is started with \< and terminated with \!, an
    absolute dynamic, or an additional crescendo or decrescendo mark.
    A decrescendo mark is started with \> and is also terminated with
    \!, an absolute dynamic, or another crescendo or decrescendo mark.
    \cr and \decr may be used instead of \< and \>. Hairpins are
    engraved by default using this notation.
    c2\< c\!
    d2\< d\f
    e2\< e\>
    f2\> f\!
    e2\> e\mp
    d2\> d\>
    c1\!
    "
    I guess you might have to place the mp, pp, etc as markups - (but
    these might not then be seen by midi...?) - if you want the
    hairpin to extend across the complete snippet ... from \> to \!

    Hope this helps
    Regards
    Bill
