Hi,

I'm not really sure how to word my issue. I have a piece wrote for the saxophone which is in 5 flats, what I want to do is change all the flats such as Gb to appear on my piece instead as an F#. I know there will be many naturals and flats then within my piece but I really dislike flats.

Many Thanks
Tom

Hi, try this: assuming you're using Sibelius 7

Select all the notes (Ctrl + A is probably quickest)
Go to the Notations menu and click Respell

You may want to use the Filter or Advance filter to select/deselect certain notes first.
Sibelius 6.2, 7.5.1, Windows 11

Hi,

Thank you, I had looked over that so many times without noticing it!
