!Sibelius7/!Help/Lines
This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

CREATING A LINE
� Choose the one you want from the Lines
window
� Press Adjust where you want the left-hand
end to go
� Drag to where you want the right-hand end to
go, and release.
Holding down Ctrl while dragging out the
right-hand end ensures it doesn't move up or
down, which is useful for creating ties.
DRAGGING LINES
You can select either end of a line and drag
it around independently of the other.
If you select the middle of a line, you can
drag it up and down (though not left and
right). Once positioned on or near a stave, a
line remains attached to that stave and can�t
be dragged away. To move it to another stave,
copy it with Adjust and delete the original.
If you drag the middle of a slur, you can
adjust its height and shape. Sibelius censors
the shape as you drag to ensure that the slur
will always look good when finally printed.
COPYING LINES
Select the line to be copied, then copy it
using Adjust as if the original had been
chosen from the Lines menu.
See manual about the effects of the Align when
copying and Copy entire lines options.
DELETING LINES
Select the line and press Delete.
