Yes, the num lock is on, I'm in common notes, and everything works but the ties. That was not the case with my last numpad (now lost), so I don't know if this is a pad-related issue or something else maybe more complex? That's why I was looking for an alternative way of tying notes together. Does such thing exist?

If the common notes template is active, you should get a tie on or off. I was just wondering if in Sibelius access there is an alternative way to write ties than the num-enter? With my new adesso numpad, when I press num-enter, Sibelius, not just with Access but with speaking as well, reacts as if I pressed the regular keyboard enter and starts toggling enharmonics. Maybe there is some way to configure keys somewhere? Now, I write the long note that should be divided into tied notes in an early part of a later bar, then paste it into the right spot, but that takes more time than just hitting a key. Any help shall be greatly appreciated.
