Add Instrument Change With Names

Version 01.09.60
Added 20 Oct 2022 (last updated 25 Mar 2024)

For use with Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x

Add Instrument Change With Names effectively does what the Sibelius Add Instrument command does, except that it allows you to specify both Instrument Names and Staff Names for the new Instrument Change. It also has a Use Previous Staff Names checkbox, so it can create a new Instrument Change with specified Instrument Names, but continue to use the previous Staff Names, rather than making them blank. __Use the New macro/plugin button to generate a command line, encoding all the current dialog settings, for the RunPluginEntry_cu command used in Execute Commands. If the plugin Custom Search Shortcut is installed, you will be able to automatically generate a plugin to run that command or add the command to the Command List in Execute Commands. __Updated 22 October 2022. Minor bug fix. __Updated 03 March 2024. Version 01.09.50. Updated to support New Plugin button. Needs updated Execute Commands, cmdutils, and New Plugin Lib. __Updated 25 March 2024. Version 01.09.60. Removed obsolete code in New Plugin... code in validating outside callers. No change for normal use of plugin.
