Chord Symbols For Sib 5 Export

Version 01.30.00
Added 08 Sep 2012 (last updated 27 Nov 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, Sibelius 24.x and Sibelius 25.x

Will convert Chord Symbol objects so that if they are text only they will become legacy chord symbols with plain text, and if diagrams, they will become a diagram with no text and a plain-text legacy chord symbol for the text.

The text used in the legacy chord symbols avoids the special characters used for accidentals and other characters in Sib 6 and 7.

This is intended for scores that are to be exported to Sibelius 5 and earlier, which used different text characters in chord symbols.

Updated 27 November 2017 fixed bug with chord diagram only setting
