Select and Copy ONLY Time Signatures

Hello.

I'm wondering if there's a way within a passage of music to mass select ONLY the time signatures for copying into another score.

Thank you!

Paul

I think you can use a filter to select all time signatures, but I not understanding what you are trying to do. Next time I'm on my Sibelius computer, I'll try it.

Thanks for replying.

I'm bringing MIDI files into Sibelius that have multiple meter changes and pasting the notes into my pre-existing template. I don't want to copy an entire system passage from the MIDI file because that ruins formatting in my template. So, I want to copy over the time signatures before copying over the notes so everything lines up properly but I haven't been able to find a filter for only time signatures.

Let me know if you have any luck.

Thanks.

Thanks. Now I'm beginning to understand what you are doing. No luck filtering, as it is not even close to what you want. But what is different about your template as opposed to the midi?
On the other hand, If you filter for, and delete, notes in the midi, that leaves time sigs. Does that help you?
