The other thing you can do is to get a USB numpad which will turn your laptop keyboard into a full size keyboard, provided you choose desktop layout in Sibelius. -----Original Message----- From: sib-access-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:sib-access-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Claudio Sacco Sent: Friday, May 21, 2010 7:29 AM To: sib-access@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [sib-access] Re: Creating Ties? Hi Parham Reading your mail I think, that you are using a Laptop, and that you are trying to enter your tie using your laptop keyboard. If so, note that you are much more confortable using a full sized PC keyboard. But if you, like me, prefer to stick to your laptop keyboard, you must know, that not all laptop count the enter key of being part of the keypad, when numlock is turned on. That's the case for example with my laptop. In this case you have to assign another key command to entering ties. I choose "alt+control+enter" in place of only enter. If you don't know, how to do this, let me know, and later I can step you through this setting. Sib-access will not tell you, that you are tieing notes, while typing, with this setting, but you can always arrow to verify, that it worked.. I will not tell you, how you can make Sib-Access verbose, while typing your tie; that's dan's job, if he find this modification to the script safe. When entering slurs, Sib-Access should give you feedback; if it doesn't, then something is going wrong, and you will have to provide more infos to sort out the problem.
