Hello,
in an earlier version of Sibelius I easily could move a note head horizontically, when it for ex. came to collision of two notes.
Does anybody know how to do in Sibelius First 8?
I could'nt find. Thanks!

To shift a notehead horizontally, I'd open the Inspector and set the X value for the note as appropriate.

However, I see that you have First - the stripped down version of Sibelius. If you were previously using the full version, there will be many features now missing. I haven't used First in many years, I can't remember if it has an Inspector.

If you had a full version of Sibelius, why on earth did you downgrade? :shock:
