The Sibelius tutorial made me wish I studied it before I developed my bad habits. I normally have to get "READY" to do my absolute best performance during the flexi input only to find the speed adjusts. How many times have I deleted my work, because I reduced the subdivision where it's too sensitive.
How many times have a contorted my wrists to highlight more than one measure when all I had to do was triple click. If I followed directions the first time, I would have known to press tab to start. I was so excited with the fast pace of learning the note writing software I didn't make the time to read the tutorials.
Shift clicking was my best friend, now I find all my wind slurs just need an s, and the space bar extends a key stroke. My biggest frustration is finding a way to change the metronome marking indicating the note value = a #.
The other is showing the rhythmic value instead of a word. Any helpers?
I'm glad you've learned some things about using Sibelius more effectively. A good place to start when you have questions about how to do something in Sibelius is to look under Sibelius' "Help" menu. The reference material provided is searchable and you will often be able to easily find what you are looking for.
