I'v noticed, while inputing chords that Sibelius puts accidentals in the right order except when the top note is a natural sign. Is this a flaw or is this an engraving rule I'm unaware of? See attachment.

After entering more chords I'm discovering more occasions where the order of accidentals is reversed on some chords. Anyone else experiencing this? Do I have a wrong setting somewhere?

No idea. Might have something to do with the accidentals not physically clashing with each other. Or maybe that's just how the British do it. Noneofthe examples you posted bother me.
