Hi
I'm quite new to Sybelius and like analyzing music. I usually always write the name of the chord above the top line of the staff. I want to write the roman numerals above that.
When I try to create a new text style most of the menus are blocked for me. I suppose I would need to change the vertical alignment but that is one of the menus that's blocked.
Why is that and how do I change it?

Thanks

Look up "Roman Numerals" in the manual. One thing they are used for is Figured bass. These appear below the lowest staff. You can drag them where ever you want if that's the route you have to go.
