Chris,
I'd also like a way to see how many pages there are and where the page
breaks occur.
There is a way to find out some of this information, already.
Alt-F, then I for Info. This brings up the dialog where you can add title,
comments. to the file. Just Shift-Tab to get to the page tabs, and move to
the next page
This page needs to be navigated with the JAWS cursor, so turn off Num Lock
or use the Ctrl-JJ to activate. It will give you the number of staves and
the number of pages. I use this a lot when I'm trying to squeeze some music
down to just two pages, for example. Lots of trial-and-error, so henceforth
my wishlist item of knowing where the page breaks occur.
As for the time and key signatures, I'm sure you already know how to use the
triple-F5 key to get that.
Dave

Subject: [ddots-l] Score Overview in Sibelius Speaking?
I'm not sure if this is feasible, but I was thinking today that it would
be very nice to have a Sibelius Speaking command that listed the important
characteristics of a score. In other words, you open a new unfamiliar
.sib file and after pressing a key, hear the number of staves, bars, time
and key signatures, etc. Of course, you can figure this stuff out by
arrowing around and listening to the file, but it would be neat to have
this basic info available at a glance, kind of like how the F1 key lists
the attributes of the currently-selected note.
What do other people think?
