228: Metronome mark - how to create
- Choose Create > Text > Metronome mark
- A small flashing caret (or insertion point) appears above the note – Sibelius knows that this kind of text should go above the staff, so it automatically puts it there
- Now Control-click (Mac) or right-click (Windows) – a menu of useful words appears.
- Choose the quarter note (crotchet) from the menu and click it. The menu disappears, and the quarter note appears in your score.
- Hit space, then type e.g. = 80 to complete the metronome mark
- Finally, hit Esc to stop creating text.
