Note input problem
In Sibelius 7.1.5 I put in two quarter notes in 4/4 time and then Sibelius automatically fills in the rest of the bar with a half note rest. This is an annoying waste of time since I often want to fill the rest of the bar with something else. How do I stop it from doing this?
That's the way Sibelius works, each bar must be 'full' of notes and/or rests according to the prevailing time signature. Just change the remaining rests with the note/rest values that are needed. It's fully explained in the manual.
For the record I believe most other noation software works in this way.

If you are using the computer keyboard for input you can change the note length on the fly just by using the keypad. Hardly a major issue with workflow!
