Having got onto the website, try typing A563 in the search field to call up the troubleshooter page. Alternatively, here's the page's URL: http://...

Imported music fonts - 2 problems!
Hi there! - please can you help with either of these two snags I'm having with importing music fonts? 1. I'm compiling a TrueType font of my own glyph designs with FontLab Type Tool, using Maestro.ttf as a template for correct glyph positioning and numbering. In Sibelius 6.1, after setting up the fo...

Problem traced and eliminated!
I'm relieved to report having traced the cause of the above and Sib's return to working condition. The failure is one of several recognized start-up crash scenarios described on Sibelius Help Center website. The site provides a failed-startup troubleshooter that will hopefully enable you to identify...

Program won't complete loading on starting up
After no previous problems at all of this kind, I'm suddenly experiencing a failure of my Sib 6.1 to complete its starting-up sequence. Specifically, the sequence halts when the progress-report on the Sib opening screen gets to "Creating Tool Windows: Ideas Detailed View". This trouble commenced aft...

Note-spacing - knowhow needed!
Currently I'm using Sib 6.1 to engrave the piano part of Rach 3, a task requiring immense precision over the horizontal placing and spacing of notes, accidentals, clefs, keysignatures in order to distribute bars on systems and systems on pages according to an exactly planned scheme and, within this ...

Accidentals - 2 Annoyances
Regarding the cross-staff accidentals problem, I've spent some further time on it and found a practical workaround. (I'm using Sib 6.1) If Sib generates a faulty result on applying the cross-staff beaming command, select a passage from what you see, then click on the supplied plugin "Add Accidentals...

Accidentals - 2 Annoyances
I'm encountering these two annoying matters concerning accidentals: 1) When using naturals for octaves and other widely spaced intervals - ie., instances where the signs can and should be vertically aligned - they are consistently drawn unaligned. One will be positioned slightly too close to its not...

PS to Problem with notating duplicated voices
A propos of my just-posted question, it occurs to me that the identical manner of notation occurs a lot in Chopin - e.g. the first theme of Ballade No.1, and especially throughout the middle section of the slow movement of the B minor Sonata. So the problem isn't exactly rare and obscure, leaving me...

Unsolved problem notating duplicated voices
I'm currently using Sibelius 6 to prepare an Urtext edition of Alkan's Op.39 Etudes, which present numerous non-standard notational configurations it's important to retain, rather than translate into more conventional notation. Sibelius copes astonishingly well with reproducing most of these exactly...
