I'm confused! I posted a full reply to this query a few hours ago and it seems to have disappeared. I wouldn't run the arp line to top/bottom of the staves. See image. Top note in voice 3, [ctrl][shift][uparrow] onto upper staff, lengthen (drag) the stem to hit the lower notes. Use the arpeggio on t...

Whatever you do won't be perfect.

That is NOT a caesura!

That is a system separator. You can turn them off here (image)

I don't use Kontakt with Sibelius because I just found it too fussy. I want to spend my time composing and arranging, not fiddling with the machinery! With every vsti, there is an xml file that is placed in the folder (image) vstfolder.png Be aware that Sibelus does not handle vst3, only vst2 (unlik...
