Ugur, Glissando and harmonics are easy to accomplish. I'm not sure how you indicate rasgueado in print. It may be that you just add the word above the staff, in which case this is simple. Even if it isn't that easy I'd doubt that Sibelius would be unable to do it, given that it's a fairly common classical/Flamenco guitar technique and Sibelius can do much rarer things than this. If your friend can explain how sighted musicians normally indicate it, we will be able to give you more exact advice.

Well, my question is this time not mine. We have a composer here, he works on modern music. With Sibelius 3 he hs been writing his works till now but sighted assistance was more help to him rather than the scripts which make sibelius accessible. When I let him know about the Sibelius 5.2 and the scripts first thing he asked if script can read "clef". we made a quick test and happily saw that it does. Although he mentioned that this is a fine step, he wants to make sure if scripts can handle such advanced musical articulations like "glissando in an an harmonics". And he mentioned about a guitar tecnic called "rasguado" and wonders if this can be read also. Before I start digging the manual and documentation, can I ask if anyone knows such articulations, or tecnics, are applicable by scripts in writing and reading music? I am sorry if I am asking something extreme about the sibelius software and scripts in general With best wishes Ugur If you wish to unsubscribe, send a blank message with the single word, unsubscribe - in the Subject line to: sib-access-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx If you wish to unsubscribe, send a blank message with the single word, unsubscribe - in the Subject line to: sib-access-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
