MessageHello,

It will depend on what text type was used to enter those symbols. Lyrics is 
just one type of text. There are several different text types used in Sibelius. 
Sorry I can't be more specific. You'll just have to experiment with different 
filters until you find one that works. Try starting with one that gathers a lot 
of different text types. Use a bigger net to catch more fish.

  Hello Dave:

  I open the menu, select the edit, and open the filter menu. Select the lirix 
text, and other selections, but Jaws not read me the symbols.
  How I can read and listen the symbols?

  Best regards, Dimitrios Tsakiridis.

    Hello,

    You may be able to find these text and symbols by using the Edit menu, the 
Filter, and customizing what you are filtering. It gives you  the capability of 
selecting different types of text in a score. That's the only way I know to 
locate these. I don't know any way to find them by simply stepping through the 
score.

    Sibelius is not good with chords, as Kevin points out. Using the 
Alt-Up/Down Arrow keys will step you through each note of the chord, but the 
whole chord still sounds. One idea put forward in the tutorial is to change the 
octave of one of the notes, and listen to see if you can detect that note by 
ear. Then change it back to the correct octave. Then move to the next note and 
do the same.

    When I need to know the structure of a large number of chords, I convert to 
MIDI and use Cakewalk to look at the notes in the event view -- it's much 
easier.

    Dave

      My score I created on the Sibelius. My teatcher select the text, maby 
lirix text, and put some symbols, like the letter N, under the note, for sharp, 
or flat. My teatcher put also some numbers, under of the notes.
      If you know, tell me, How I can to send atutchment files in this list, so 
I try to send my scores in this list forum.

      Best regards, Dimitrios Tsakiridis.

        It is not possible to listen to the individual notes of a chord in 
Sibelius one at a time.  This is not a Sibelius Speaking fault.  It is a 
failure of the Sibelius program itself.  I don't know about the numbers and 
symbols you describe.  Who put the symbols in the score?   Is this a score that 
was created in Finale and imported to Sibelius?  Where did the score come from? 
 Were you ever able to read the numbers in the score?

          Dear my friends:

          I have the Sibelius speaking version 3.1.10.9, with Jaws version 
7.10.500.
          I use Windows XP Professional Service pack 2, in Greek language.
          My computer is a lap top, Toshiba Satellite A200-1IZ.

          Now, I have some scores, that they have some symbols and numbers. 
Jaws can not read. So, I can not work on these scores.

          1. How I can read the numbers and other symbols under of the notes?
          2. How I can listen the notes from cords seperately, no like cord, 
but only one-one note seperately?

          Best regards, Dimitrios Tsakiridis from Greece.
