__Replaces selected lines of a specified style with lines of another style, effectively providing a mechanism to change the style of lines. __System lines can only be replaced by system lines, and staff lines by staff lines. __The plugin is in English, but it will correctly replace lines whose style names are in different languages. __Updated 31 July 2010 to pick up system lines that are the only thing in the selection. __Updated 2 August 2010 to pick up all user lines in the score, not just those in the selection. __Updated 8 October 2010 to restore custom drawing order and magnetic layout properties. Version 1.05. __Updated 18 February 2019. Version 01.06.00. Code tidying. __Updated 4 December 2019. Version 01.06.10. Removed unwanted debugging line written to the trace window. __Updated 30 January 2021. Version 01.07.00. This plugin adds a new Line and deletes the original. Added more general routine to transfer Bar Object properties to the new Line. Color, ColorAlpha, CueSize, Hidden, and other properties are now retained. __Updated 14 October 2022 (HBD) Version 01.08.00. As of Sib Ultimate 2021.9, the list of replacement line styles will include all line styles defined in the score, including all user-defined styles. Previously a list of built-in line styles was built by hand, and then any user-defined styles that were used in the current score were added to the list. This change can be useful if you have a lot of user-defined lines styles available in a score because of the House Style, but they have not been used in the current score. __This update is dedicated to Michele Galvagno. __Updated 18 October 2022. Version 010801. Fixed internal typos.
