Dear JPR,
I'm sorry for a slight confusion. Are you saying that installing
Dan's new RC1 could potentially remove unique sound sets and custom playback
configurations? I have a sound set for Vienna Instruments solo Strings
which I find vital for the creation of my new string quartet. Do I run the
risk of losing or compromising those sound sets by installing RC1?
Dan,
Please weight in here if necessary.
Best,
Kevin

Dear Dan,
my Sibelius software folder contains more items now. For example I set up my
own playback configuration to use my midi gear instead of sound essentials.
I did a few other things which would be too long to explain here but I was
only saying that instead of copying the folder itself, if you customise
things as I did, it may be a good idea to copy the contents of the new
Sibelius software folder to the existing folder on your computer in order to
replace the previous plug-ins and menus and shortcuts. It seems things like
playback configurations are saved in the same folder. If you are interested
I can send you my Sibelius software folder so that you can see what it
contains. Cheers, JPR http://myspace.com/jeanphilipperykiel

JPR,
The only things which are changed through the Sibelius Software folder are
the plug-ins and the keystrokes in Sibelius itself. You definitely need to
do this.
If you've added your own keystrokes then I'm afraid that you'll have to
add
them yourself, but I don't suppose that you've added many.
The "preferences" that you mentioned will most likely refer to options
that
you set in the preferences dialog, and these are mostly stored in registry
keys. The only keys which are changed relate to tool windows and the
smoothing level of the score. These are options which you should
definitely
accept because they make life much easier.
Hope this helps,
Dan Rugman

Subject: [sib-access] preserving preferences
Dear all,
before installing this new version, there is something I really must know.
If I copy the Sibelius software folder as it is, it will destroy
everything
I modified or created in Sibelius preferences before installing this new
version. By looking at this folder, I could see that it contained only two
items. I suppose it's okay to copy these two items in my already existing
Sibelius software folder and thus preserving my preferences. But before I
do
this I would like to be really sure it won't brake anything.
Cheers,
JPR
