Need help with plugins
I'm using version 7, but there's no option on the file menu to add plugins. The directions online are unclear or don't work; there's a plugin I really need to install. Can anyone help me on this?

Re: Need help with braces/brackets
Thanks, that helped a lot! Now, the only thing left to do is to figure out how to create the winged bracket. Anyone have any ideas?

Need help with braces/brackets
I really need someone's help with this. Please refer to the attached picture. On the left is the original score; on the right is Sibelius. There's some obvious differences. I don't know how to get the brace thing onto the repeat line - and also, there's some secondary braces/brackets on the left - w...

Re: Need help with DC al Signo
Not really; the first time through the chorus, there's a "transition" piece that needs to be played before going back to the verse. On the second time through, it should go directly to the ending. I probably have the sign in the wrong place.

Need help with DC al Signo
I have a piece I've already put into Sibelius; when it was imported (from a .MID file), it contained the intro, verse, chorus, verse, chorus & ending. Since I don't want to (or need to) actually repeat the music for the verse & chorus, I thought the proper method would be to use a DS al Signo; the D...

Re: Need help with ties
Hmm... that seems to be a program limitation, then; I'll go ahead & make the notation, but I feel very strongly that a program as thorough (and expensive) as this should be able to understand ties that go beyond repeats.

Re: Need help with ties
Yes, but "s" is for slurs, I thought (which are different from ties). What I'm after isn't just the look; what I'm wondering is if Sibelius will PLAY the tie on the second part...

However, it doesn't carry through to the second measure of the repeat. Do I need to "draw in" the ties manually...

Re: Need help with double stem
Perfect! I just couldn't figure it out! It never occurred to me that the note had to be part of a triplet itself, since it's drawn as a quarter note, but the hidden rest puts the note exactly where it's drawn. Thanks!

Need help with the editor
When I'm editing in Sibelius, when I click to enter a note in the last position in the last bar on the page, the program automatically jumps the screen to focus on the next page. It's quite annoying having to scroll back to the bar I was just working on to enter to enter the next note (for instance,...

Need help with double stem
This piece is written in 2/2 time. https://36.media.tumblr.com/2049b75d1f06566b6fa19d0e2b7f097a/tumblr_nlcxnrQ8ZF1uogho2o1_400.png Ordinarily, to add a second stem, I'd use one of the alternate voices. I generally use Voice #1 for the primary notes, and Voice #3 for the secondary notes (these Voices...

Re: Need help with paging
a). I hadn't set the double barline yet; b). I haven't entered any notes in the section after this, I'll enter the notes and make the change; if I still have trouble, I'll post back. I still need to find out how to "balance" the staffs on the page (2 on page 1, 4 on page 2), so they're spread evenly.

I've selected the bar line where the page should break and clicked the "Page Break" button, and the icon shows... but the page isn't breaking: https://40.media.tumblr.com/8f6c1e415d635c0c682f1d3f906d78f0/tumblr_nkwg7bpu0Z1uogho2o1_500.png What am I doing wrong?

Re: Need help with notation
Thank you for your reply. I searched out Cross-Beaming, and found a post which told me to use CTRL - SHIFT - UP (or down) to move the notes; once I had the notes on the proper staff, I flipped the ties properly, and then moved the staff head up to where it belongs. Here is the result: https://41.med...
