The Sibelius Forum

You can't attach sib files to this board directly. If you zip the file, it will attach. All files of any type must be less than 1M in size.

AFAIK, this should work in Sib First. Look in the manual (press F1 with a file open) it's a fully searchable pdf and has a list of keyboard shortcuts for both Mac and pc near the back.
In my ultimate version, it's on page 762

Initially, select the measure(s) and type [ctrl][shift]p (reset position).

If that doesn't work, look at the engraving rules for rests. Change the selections (shown boxed in the attached.)

I believe you can do this, but you have to 'check-in" once a month. I'm not sure what the exact procedure is, but there is a help article here: https://avidtech.my.salesforce-sites.co ... -Licensing

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

If the keyboard shows up in input devices in sibelius when connected by Bluetooth, then technically it should be able to be used. However, Bluetooth is notoriously laggy and you may well find it impossible to use for input. I'd stick to wired connection.

Sibelius can only address one output device at a time. Make sure your bluetooth speakers are selected in audio engine options.

1. Make sure that all songs have the same instruments with the same names and in the same order. 2. Make sure each song ends with a final barline and the last bar is marked as a Section end (Use the inspector) 3. Open the first score 4. Use Append score to add the next song. Check that it has been a...

So much depends on the quality of the pdfs. If they are clean, computer generated pages, there should be very little work. Anything else is likely to take hours and hours of clean up. Also, there are major features missing from the free version of photoscore. Do not let PS automatically read the sco...

Firstly, this is a common problem, especially for those who tend to use layouts with 4 bars per line. Whatever you do, do NOT, under any circumstances, drag barlines around. That is opening up a world of hurt for yourself later on. Try these methods instead: 1. Reduce the size of the staff slightly ...

Just a thought for future reference. Sib files, unless you bloat them by saving internal versions, are tiny. Rarely more than a couple of hundred k. Even for very long works. Increase your saved backups to 1000 or more files (I've actually got mine set to 30000). I doubt you'll actually miss the spa...

Much better to use xml or mxl from logic, although why you'd want to move from logic I don't know!

There will still be plenty of clean-up to do, it's unavoidable.

I gave you the information you needed to set you on the path to find the complete answer. I'm not here to save you from boredom. "It's boring" is just another way of saying "I can't be bothered". How old are you, 12? The manual gives very clear and concise information about how to use text, how diff...

Well, you know, if you can't be bothered, put up with your lack of knowledge! ANY system text will appear on all parts as well as in the score. However all the different types of system text are named. The common ones like "title", "tempo", "composer", "lyricist" etc are given names that tell you wh...

You change it in the Text tab of the ribbon. There's a little arrow on the bottom right of the Styles box. Clicki this and a dialog will open letting you change lots of things about text, including font sizes.

I've always found midi input of drum notation to be extremely unreliable. Using midi, the drum notation has to use channel 10. Some keyboards seem to have issues setting this up. After years of trying, I gave up and just started inputting by hand. In the end, it was too time costly to try to play th...
