Hi Claudio,
I think it is important to stress at this stage that, the
development has been done using a UK-English layout
keyboard, which in turn most likely explains why this works
best.
For the developer's benefit however, I would stress the
importance of trying to get hold of an actual US-English
keyboard. (Hopefully I may have one somewhere here I can
lend you) Two fundamental differences are that there is no
key to the left of the Z key, and both left and right Alt
keys send out the same scan code.
As far as am aware (or from what I've experienced over the
last 20 years or so) the UK keyboard is closest to those
used in Europe, especially in terms of generating a third
character using the right hand Alt Gr key.
If there are specific keystroke problems, may I suggest your
report includes the following.
1) PC Keyboard or Laptop.
2) The keyboard layout in use. E.g. UK-English, French
AZERTY, German, etc..
3) The keystroke(s) causing the problem. (and also spell out
things like "`" keys - grave accent)
4) The actual location of the physical keys used above. E.g.
left of the one on the number row. (Bear in mind laptop
keyboard layouts vary tremendously.)
George.

I'm using Sibelius5.2 with Sibelius Access with success. The
only thing,
which is important to know and isn't mentioned anywhere or
at least I didn't
read it, is, that the PC keyboard layout should be set to UK
or US-English,
so that things work best. I think, this is so, because the
plugin which is
automaticaly triggered by the scripts is called by
"control+`. And for some
reason, which I don't understand, UK-English is even better
than US-English.
Regards
Claudio

Since the initial flurry of messages, all is quiet. Dan, I
presume then that
your one and only bug was found and resolved. That's a
resounding hurrah!
for your scripts, even if possibly premature.
I've not purchased the Sibelius 5.2 upgrade yet, so still in
monitor mode.
Good work, all around.
Dave
