Solo piano score alternating between 1 and 2 staves

I'm working on a left hand only piano piece arrangement that I've created with a normal piano grand staff, but there are large portions of the piece that use only the treble or bass clef and I would like to hide the unused clef lines. I've mostly achieved what I'm going for with the following steps:...

Creating midi markers

Is it possible to create midi markers in Sibelius 6? I would like to create markers for things such as segmentation (verse, chorus, etc.), chord names, etc. It would save me a lot of time if I could do this in sibelius rather than exporting the midi and doing it in another program. Thanks

Re: Additive Meters

Go to Create>Time Signature, click other and type in 3+2 in the top box.

Page 187 in the reference manual (Sibelius 6) goes into more detail about it...

Hope that helps!

Re: note added causes the original note to disappear

Click on the original note to highlight it then press 1-9 depending on what interval you would like added. 1 = unison, 2 = 2nd, etc...
Also, if you hold shift and press 1-9 it will create a descending interval.

slurs over grace notes

Is there an easy way to create slurs over grace notes or starting on a grace note, and ending on a regular note? I can't seem to figure it out, so I've been manually dragging the slurs into place, which obviously takes much longer.

Thanks!

Re: anyone has a crazy page of music to share?

A few suggestions: (These are all solo piano pieces) Islamey: an oriental fantasy - Mily Balakirev Gaspard de la nuit - Maurice Ravel Concerto for Solo Piano - Charles Valentin-Alkan (You should be able to find free public domain versions of all of these pieces on imslp.org.) The best fit for your n...

sibelius restarts itself

I have sibelius 6 and everytime right after I shut it down a small window pops up and says "Sibelius is restarting" and it opens back up. It never used to do this, it just started a few weeks ago. Any ideas as to what could be causing this? It's not a huge problem, as I can just click "cancel" when ...

notating with multiple voices

I've noticed that when I notate with voices 1 and 3 on the same beat they will line up vertically perfect, but if I do the same thing with voices 1 and 2 voice 2 is not lined up with voice one. I was wondering what the purpose of this is, and if it is possible to change it, so regardless of what voi...

Hi Jeremy, I think i found what you're talking about at House Style>Edit Noteheads> 7 (headless)....Now, I feel stupid asking this next question because it's probably very simple and obvious but, how exactly do I select this "style" to use in my score. I tried simply clicking on #7 and it just highl...
