Paste To End Of Bar

Version 01.05.20
Added 20 Jul 2018 (last updated 19 Apr 2025)

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

Pastes whatever has been copied to the clipboard to the end of the currently selected bar.

This probably will only work well for right aligned text, and it is designed for adding such text to the end of a system. Don't try it with notes or lines, for example.

The zip file contains a score in Sibelius 6 format which contains several Text Styles for right-aligned Technique text. The installer will install the score as Manuscript Paper, so if you New a score with that Manuscript Paper you can copy text with the desired style into your score, then delete that text, and you will still have imported its text style. You can then close the New score without saving.

In your score you can then create text with that style, the cut it to the clipboard and use Paste To End Of Bar to place it at the end of any selected bar.

Updated 16 April 2025, Version 01/05.10. Removed Reset Position setting after paste to make it work better with Lines.

Updated 19 April 2025, Version 01/05.20. You can now select System Objects, such as special Barlines (though not default barlines) to show the target bar for pasting. If a System Object is selected, the copied data will go to the end of the chosen bar in the first staff of the score.
