Re: Staccato Playback length
You'll find it under Play-->Playback-->Dictionary. Look under articulations.

Re: show chord symbols in every part
I'm not at my computer at the moment, but I believe you can set one of the text properties to transpose.
See if you can find it. I'll have a look myself when I've had breakfast.

Re: Finding The Correct Notes On Keyboard Controller
Let's get something straight right from the outset. SIBELIUS IS NOT A DAW. Now, having said that, you have to understand that, as a notation program, Sibelius treats percussion differently. It has something called a drum map, that places the various parts of a drum kit on the "correct" line or space...

Re: Piano Finger Numbers
Have you heard the phrase "You get what you pay for and you pay for what you get"? The free version of sibelius is extremely crippled by omissions and unavailable features. In the full version, you would be able to create a new text style to place fingerings under the staff, based on the existing fi...

Re: "clear" key num pad Mac
There are a number of different reasons this could be happening. The mapping of the keys across different languages seems to be very inconsistent on macs. You might have to change the mapping yourself. Unfortunately, I don't have (and don't want) a mac so I can't tell you how to do that.

Re: Swap arrangement in chords of seconds
Well, I don't use edge. I agree, it's awful. It wasn't showing in firefox, but it is now showing on my phone! Unfortunately, I can't use sib on my android phone. Unfortunately, I can't think of any way to overturn sibelius' note positioning rules. The only things that came close to success were to p...

If so there will be files in the scores backup folder. 3. Try saving the file into a different folder or onto a different device or into the cloud. 5 what er...

Re: show chord symbols in every part
The problem with your idea is that chord symbols are not normal text objects. They are not handled like normal text and they are not able to be converted to system text styles. My best option would be to create a new text style based on plain system text and enter text in that style, instead of chor...

Re: How to fix random page breaks in score
I have to say that I hate with a passion the Sibelius defaults for page breaks. They seem to have been chosen to suit a certain kind of music which I don't write. They just get in the way. Formatting the parts by hand isn't that onerous a task.

Re: barlines disappeared
I have a friend, also on a Mac, to whom this happens regularly. She lacks experience in dragging with the Mac mousepad. It is very easy to drag the top of a barline off the staves and to thereby delete/remove all the barlines. There are a number of solutions: 1. Add a new instrument, temporarily, an...

Re: Can't fix lyrics spacing issue, Sibelius 2023
OK. It's something to do with the positioning rule for those words at the start of the bar. The only way I found to affect it was to select the "Herrn" and nudge it with the mouse or [ctrl][right arrow]. Once that is moved, the rest of the bar behaves normally. [ctrl][shift]p is reset position [ctrl...

Re: How to fix random page breaks in score
Go to Parts--> Part appearance--> All parts and turn off the bloody useless autobreaks. Also untick "keep page breaks". Then format the parts yourself.

Re: Can't fix lyrics spacing issue, Sibelius 2023
If you select the system with the issue - double click in an empty part of one staff then [shift]-click on the others. Then press [ctrl][shift]n and [ctrl][shift]p. This should reset the position of all objects according to the layout and engraving rules. You'll have to look up the Mac shortcuts in ...
