![]() It assumes you know what you are doing in running it, and makes no judgments, but the author would like to remind the user that there are many musical situations where an E# is perfectly appropriate, and using this plug-in would produce incorrect musical notation. It can also respell double and triple accidentals. It will find and respell B# to C, E# to F, Cb to B and Fb to E. Respell Uncommon Accidentals respells certain accidentals that are avoided in some musical styles. In my experience, no matter how brilliant they may be at coding, programmers are often the worst people to be assigned the task of designing the user interface.For use with Sibelius 3.x, Sibelius 4, Sibelius 4.1, Sibelius 5, Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x and Sibelius 21.x User interface design is being taken much more seriously now, but too often in the past it was treated as tertiary part of software development rather than a primary one. The more logically that the things are organized, the easier it is to memorize the basic map coordinates and to guess correctly where the things that are related to other things will be found. Learning a program interface requires the user to create a basic mental map of where things are located. I hear this 'Lazy User' argument all the time to defend poorly thought out interfaces, where important settings and functions are non intuitively scattered like Easter eggs under fathomless drill downs, or under cryptic menu icons that spawn a set of poorly organized whack-a-mole dialogs. I've had some experience in designing and modifying user interfaces. On the other hand there is Dorico which works in many ways in similar fashion (playback options), but is modern, looks great and is mostly self explanatory. Good that they have trial + extended paid trial (subscription I mean ). There are awesome things there, but whenever I try to find anything there, I always end up in Google. ![]() well, for me it was total, nerve wrecking mess. And that plugin thing? Seriously, every submenu needs their own plugins submenu? Who does that? For me it's clearly software from long gone era and if you started Sibelius journey in that era I guess you will be fine (because you got used to it, not because it is smart / good design). Sibelius is huge mess, hides important things under tiny elements, which doesn't even look like may be clickable (no visual feedback at all), confuses with menus within menus, doesn't remember such simple things as export folders. Pretty much everything what this guy says was true for me. ![]()
