Re: Sibelius licensing problem, a big nasty one in this case

Many thanks for spending this time helping me. I will go through all of it today and tomorrow and let you know what happened. I do think something really is amiss here, because I know the "Activated" sign is on. I will pass on the result.

Sibelius licensing problem, a big nasty one in this case

I bought Sibelius Ultimate this last April 24, 2020. It's telling me I have 11 days left of the 30-day trial period even though I bought and activated a 1-year license for a cool $199. Fortunately I used my credit card, which I always do to give myself recourse situations just like this one. To prot...

I made up two styles: one, "Fingerings" for above the staff Voice 1 notes and another, "FingeringsV2" for below the staff Voice 2 notes. Now I know that my new Fingering styles (ba...

Magnetic Layout setting for a text style?

I have a text style for guitar fingerings which I can invoke with a keyboard shortcut. I would like to change the Magnetic Layout Object setting from Default to Off for the entire text style so I don't have to do it every time I enter a fingering on a score. Am I in luck or out of luck?

Printing Current Page

I select page 2 as the current page. I hit Print. Sibelius switches back to page 1 and prints it.
Come on, Avid.

Re: tablature from two or more voices

Yes it works but is laborious, error-prone, and time-consuming. Oh well. I did it, but I was hoping for some snazzy plug-in to do it for me. That's life.

tablature from two or more voices

I'm putting some of Bach's music into tablature after copying standard notation into the required number of voices. If I simply make tablature, I get information that tablature readers would rather glean from the standard notation. All they want from the tab is string and fret and maybe when in the ...
