Sib. 7.5: tuplet brackets
Posted by Dermot Gault - 12 Dec 07:09PM
Dear Forumists

I have recently purchased Sibelius 7.5.1. Can anyone explain how to get rid of brackets in triplets / sextuplets in text which has already been inputted (in Sibelius First)?

I need to keep the triplet number, but lose the bracket. There is the simple show / hide option, but if I select 'hide' it hides the number as well as the bracket.

The notes are mostly quarter notes / crotchets and aren't beamed or connected. I also need to do this in passages with quaver / 8th note sextuplets.

Any advice greatly appreciated!

Select the number of the tuplet then:

Home tab>Inspector> Edit Tuplet> Notes Pane and choose"Number" and "No bracket"

Pls see attachment for choices there.

Thanks Bob
