!Sibelius7/!Help/Passageope

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.

SELECTING A STAVE PASSAGE

  � Double-click Select on an empty bit of stave
    in the first bar of the passage. The bar
    will turn pink.
  � If you want the passage to be longer than
    one bar, do Shift-Select on the last bar of
    the passage.


SELECTING A SYSTEM PASSAGE

  � Triple-click Select on any empty bit of
    stave in the first bar of the passage. The
    bar will turn pink, down all staves in the
    system.
  � If you want the passage to be longer than
    one bar, do Shift-Select on the last bar of
    the passage.


COPYING A STAVE PASSAGE

  Click Adjust on the bar rest where the copy of
  the passage is to begin. There must be enough
  bar rests to fit the passage in - Sibelius
  will refuse to overwrite existing music; nor
  can you copy a stave passage onto a multirest.

  All stave markings are copied - not just notes
  and rests, but lines, text (except tempo and
  title text), transfers, clef changes etc.


COPYING A SYSTEM PASSAGE

  Click Adjust on the barline where the copy of
  the passage is to go. Unlike copying a stave
  passage, the system passage is inserted at the
  barline - you don�t need any bar rests to be
  there already.

  All markings are copied, including system
  markings like special barlines and tempo text.


ERASING A PASSAGE

 Having selected a passage of either kind, press
 F12. The passage will turn into bar rests,
 though markings other than notes are left
 behind.


DELETING A SYSTEM PASSAGE

 Press Delete. The whole passage is cut irretr-
 ievably, so Sibelius warns you before deleting
 several bars. Note the difference from pressing
 F12 - the bars themselves are deleted, not just
 the notes in them.
