Lines between the notes and TAB staff

Hello. I am completely new with the Sibelius. I am trying to write down some scales as notes and then as TAB. When I do so I get some little lines between the two staffs (seems to be there in order to indicate which number of the TAB goes with which note). How do I get rid of this?

These lines seem to be the rhythm stems you get with the default Tab style in Sibelius. What you need to do is change the 'instrument' of the Tab line to the one with (no rhythms).

Basically, select the entire Tab line (triple click), Change Instruments > Classical (or Acoustic) Guitar, select Acoustic Guitar, standard tuning (no ryhthms)[tab]. Untick Announce at last note... and Ok.
