The Sibelius Forum

I have already told you how to make 'system breaks' by pressing [return] after selecting the barline you want the break on. Make sure your margins are set appropriately to allow so many notes on a line and change the staff size as a last resort if all else fails. In order to get rid of any messing ...

i dont know how and why but suddenly it has started to work... i don't touch any piece around now... so far so good

does anybody know about the question I have asked in the previous post?

You're using an arpeggio symbol by the look of things. Use the proper arpeggio on the numeric keypad. That should sort out your spacing issues.` Sorry, I don't understand your second question. Probably connecting to using the symbols. many thanks the second question is about i want all arpeggio not...

I have to admit, there is something weird going on here. however, I don't know what you have done beyond a few things: Incorrectly formatted dynamic markings. these are not always successfully played back 'Unusual' use of voices and cross staffing, whichmay mean that dynamics are not being correctl...

You need to show us the actual file. otherwise this is just a guessing game. Suggestions - look for words that affect playback Turn off live playback Set performance to meccanico would it be enough if i send a questionable part of it? 'pp' in a left hand obviously sounds like 'ff' i have tried your...

When I use an arpeggio symbol, it usually runs away out of the bar it is located in, specially at the beginning of it. Please see the screen. I may move the chord by manual hotkeys but i must do it EVERY single time i change smth in this bar or around. Every manually placed arpeggio comes back to it...

It depends on your version of Sibelius. From version 8, I think, onwards you can have each instrument on a different sized staff. You choose it in the instruments dialog. may be i understood you wrong didn't you mean smth like on this Liszt screen ? https://www.virtualsheetmusic.com/score/PaganiniE...

what do you mean by "staff size" ? make it small-size? how?

i have a problem when at some moment a particular part has been played with a too loud dynamics. I know it is because of other parts that have "ff" at this section, but I use a special dynamics style expression like "p" or "pp" for the part, and usually it works. I see it is an only one way to set d...

If you want to fix the system/page ends, select the barline you want the system to finish on and press [return] and for a page break press[ctrl/cmd][return] [return] is the large enter key on the main part of teh keyboard, not the [enter] key on the numberpad. I don't know why you want to do this. ...

ok let's say i have finished all the stuff, wrote/recorded/marked all the notes. now i want to make it clear and readable. I set a special number of bars for every page, a width of bars and so on. I want the first theme will finish exactly at the last bar of a page, the second one will start with a ...
