Pls see p 477 Sib 612 pdf ref man:
"Tile Horizontally, Tile Vertically
To tile windows is to resize the open score windows such that they can all fit on the screen, and arranged such that they do not overlap. Tile Horizontally resizes the windows to the width of the display, and arranges them one above each other. Tile Vertically, on the other hand, resizes the windows to the height of the display, and arranges them side by side.
Sibelius automatically tiles score windows when comparing two versions or two scores using the Compare window – 5.22 Versions."
Also pls see p 468-471 "Versions"
Comparing versions
Sibelius provides a simple way to compare two versions of the same score, and see the differences between them both as a tabulated list, and visually displayed in the scores themselves.
To compare two versions, choose Window Compare
Comparing two separate scores
The Compare window can also be used to compare two separate scores. Simply open the two scores that you want to compare, choose the newer of the two scores from the Compare drop-
down and the older of the two from the With drop-down, and click the button.
There is also a plug-in that can compare two staves of the same score: see Compare Staves on page 497.
and p 497 "Compare Staves"
Compare Staves
Compares any two staves in the same file and highlights the differences between them. To use this plug-in, select a passage in any two staves in your score (use Ctrl+click or -click to select two non- adjacent staves if you like), then choose Plug-ins Analysis Compare Staves. A dialog appears:
Notes and rests:looks for differences in note value,pitch,voice,cue-size,hidden,etc.
Lines: looks for differences in line types, length, etc. Naturally this only works for staff lines, since system lines apply to all staves anyway.
Clefs:looks for different clefs in the two staves.
Text: looks for differences in text objects; it does not spot differences in font or point size between two staves, but it will spot differences in the words themselves, which makes this plug- in very useful for (say) checking lyrics on two vocal staves that share the same rhythms. As with lines, this only works for staff text, not system text.
Highlight differences in: allows you to choose whether you want the highlights to be drawn in the Top staff, the Bottom staff, or both (by switching on both options).
Selected passage/Whole score: choose whether to compare staves just in the selected pas- sage, or throughout the whole score.
When you click OK, the plug-in will examine your score; at the end of the process, a message box will pop up, telling you how many differences were found.
If you want to remove the highlights created by this plug-in at a later stage, see Remove All Highlights on page 520.
