Dear Barbara,
I try to figure things out without the online manual in most cases
but, for this, it is more efficient to read the manual first. You
will find that re-linking expressions from a part will not move the
expression in the score to the position you have chosen for the part
but will move the expression in the part back to the position you set
in the score. It's important to understand this behavior when
working with linked parts. This is all workable, but requires a good
bit of changing work habits.

When you do any sort of edit to an expression after placing it, it
becomes unlinked between the score and the parts. The color
changes to orange to indicate this. To restore it to the original
color (which is meaningless as far as colors go) you need to
relink the expression. Right-click and then select Re-link (or
restore link or whatever it's called.)
Do you mean that every expression I nudged a bit is now unlinked?
