Multi-Bar Rests
It is perhaps worth noting that the reason I was forced to use Sibelius for part-preparation is due to the fact that this software does not display multi-bar rests, so you could end up with a whole page of empty bars on a part, which even for amateur ensembles isn't ideal.
One thing you do have better than Sibelius is export XML files. I wanted to post my score to a Finale user from Sibelius, but can you believe that you can only import XML and not export without an add-on piece of software ? I think that all music software should have import and export XML as standard now, as it's a great way of bridging sofware in a way that midi cannot. |

Re: Multi-Bar Rests
Hi Sherry
Had a quick play with hide resting staves as suggested, but for some reason couldn't get the desired result. So if a clarinet has 20 bars' rest when you print out its part I want a single barline with a thick block in the middle and 20 written above it. Is that what you can do here with hide resting staves ? |

Re: Multi-Bar Rests
Yes - it works perfectly
That teaches me a lesson to always read the instruction manual ! Ps I always use your software to input the notes, and only use sibelius to add the final touches. thanks adrian |

Re: Multi-Bar Rests
new user here - i see how to collapse multiple bar rests, but is there a way to highlite specific bars so that rests do not run over between sections of a piece?
For example, you could have a 2 bar intro (sax is resting), and then in the following 12 bar phrase is also resting. When collapsing rests, you end up with a 14 bar section of rest. I would like to show these as two distinct rests to distinguish the sections of the song. Any tips? |
