Fix TAB 5 String Banjo

Version 01.16.00
Added 20 Nov 2011 (last updated 13 Jul 2017)

For use with Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x

This plugin is intended for use after music is copied from a notation staff to a 5-string banjo tablature staff.

Sibelius treats the 5th string as if it were a normal string, and any fretted notes copied to the 5th string will not be correct.

This plugin has 2 options. One is to move any fretted notes from the 5th string to the next highest string, and then try to remove collisions, when there is more than one note on the same string.

The second option ignores the 5th string, and just fixes collisions on the 4 lower strings.

Updated 13 July 2017. Support added for magnetic glisses in Sib 8.6 and later
