Place your wishlist here. Maybe the Sibelius developers will honor your requests.

Hello

i was very very much used to the sib-5 repeat function witch is now
changed in version 6.
for example when i have a selected dotted quarter note on 3 (in a 4/4 bar)
and i press "r" it goes now over the barline, eightnote tied to a quarter,
before it just filled the bar i was working in,
maybe you could make the repeat function switchable or something,
'cause i kind of organized me a lot of automatisms witch used the "just fill up the bar"-feature...

thanks[/img]

Hi there

I happen to know from reading the forum at sibelius.com that the Senior Product Manager at Sibelius is implacably opposed to changing this back to the way it was before.

If you want to lobby Sibelius, about that or anything else you, should do it via the official forum. Here you get great advice and help with workarounds, but you're not reaching the people at Avid/Sibelius.

Hope that helps

Thanks,
the plug-in is cool, but of course for entering music its a bit slower than the "real" old "R" function. And a little ctitic: it is adding notes before the barline, not replacing them, existing ones will continue existing. i think the old R function replaced the notes, or am i wrong?
