Lyricist is a system item.  Follow the instructions in my e-mail of a few
minutes ago with the CTRL F find dialog.

I meant the lyricist, the name of the person who wrote the lyrics.

The lyricist text, from what I remember, is a system item. However, when I
select it, it won't let me edit the text when I press enter. What the heck
is up with that?

As you land on a note, you should be told whether you're on the note, the
expression, the lyric, the technique, or whatever.  Successive tabs or shift
tabs should move you through these various elements.  Tabs move you forward.
Shift tabs move you backwards through the array.  Dave, have I got this
right? Kevin

Is she confusing CTRL Alt E with CTRL E?  CTRL E puts you in the expression
text field.   Once again, what kind of text were you trying to edit?

Annabel,

I just looked, and there is nothing in the Sib-Access guide about 
Ctrl+Alt+e. I also checked the Sibelius 5 reference guide, and nothing
there, either. Nada. Zip. Zut.

Perhaps you thought Ctrl+Alt+Equals for 400% zoom level was it?

Otherwise, you'll need to cite the paragraph and document you looked in.

Dave

I'm not sitting at my DAW now so I can't test this, but I think that key
combination just allows you to enter an expression text?

I know in the Sib-Access Manual, I believe there's somewhere that says that
when you press CTRL+Alt+E, it's supposed to take you to the edit field of
the text that you're on. So I wonder why that won't work when I do that key
combination?

Depends on whether it's a staff text item, or a system text item.

Use the tab key to navigate to it, or use the edit/filter/advanced to look
for it, or if it's a system text item, use Alt+f2 to list system items and
select the one you want to edit.

This is very basic stuff, Annabel. Read the Sib-Access reference and you'll
learn more than posting questions.

To edit text, first make sure the text is selected. Then press Enter. Edit
your text. Then press Escape to close the edit field. Then press grave
accent or Tab to go to another part of the score.

Hi, it's Annabelle.
Isn't there a key command for "Edit Text" when you select text within a
score? I thought there was a key command of CTRL+Alt+E that took you to the
Edit Text field. Now when I try to press that key command, nothing happens.
Even when I've selected text. What do I do next?
