Navigating System Objects with the Keyboard: To turn these on in your score, simply go to Appearance > House Style > Engraving Rules. We have created three brand new House Styles in Sibelius to give your scores an elegant, contemporary or casual handwritten appearance.Īs part of our overhaul of improvements to the House Styles, we have included a new style of Time Signature, which is common in film and TV scores. If you need to send someone a score that contains the new ties, you’ll need to go to File > Export and choose the version you need.

To support the new ties, we’ve increased the internal file version. It’s been a long time coming, and we’re pleased to finally release improvements to ties with three new styles of ties: Dashed and Dotted are commonly used in choral work to indicate a difference in verses within a repeated structure, or to suggest an editorial tie. Optimize Staff Spacing has been in Sibelius for a number of years now and was widely accepted as a great feature for getting a good looking score over a decade ago, but you always had to trigger it manually.

Whether you’re a budding composer or veteran engraver, there’s something here for you. This release is jam-packed with new features and improvements that all users will benefit from. It’s with great pleasure and excitement to be introducing to you the January 2020 release of Sibelius First, Sibelius and Sibelius Ultimate.
