For use with Sibelius 5
Similar to the Sibelius dynamics filter, but filters expression text and all hairpins that are derived from the originals, including from silence and dashed hairpins.

Filter Notes Tied To - Simple
Added 03 Nov 2008 (last updated 21 May 2009)
For use with Sibelius 5 and Sibelius 6
Filters notes in a selection that are the targets of a tied note, i.e., if one note is tied to a second note, the filter will select the second note.
This plugin will not catch all notes that are tied to. It assumes that the note with the ties immediately precedes its target, and so will miss arpeggiated notes tied to a block chord. It will also miss notes tied to from a note in a different voice. It general, for simple cases it works well, but please check all output carefully, and do not assume it is always correct.
This was intended for the use of selecting target notes in guitar tab, to make it easier to hide them, but there are likely many other uses as well. The Filter Other plugin has an option to filter tied notes, and these may find uses in tandem.

Select Notes in Chord Position
Added 12 Feb 2009 (last updated 05 Mar 2009)
For use with Sibelius 5
This plug-in selects/copies/deletes all specified notes of all chords within a selection based upon their position within each chord. There are a number of parameters for selecting multiple notes within each chord, both pre-defined special combinations as well as user-defined combinations. It is particularly useful for extracting chord voicings or separating music that was inputted on a single staff. Advanced applications are vast, as it can be applied to all staves within a selection and contains multiple processing functions (select, select and copy, delete, and delete and copy).
