263: Keyboard shortcuts - assigning shortcuts to plug-ins

The File > Preferences > Keyboard shortcuts dialog includes a number of unassigned shortcuts for plug-ins, called e.g. Plug-in 3.

You can assign these shortcuts to unused key combinations to run plug-ins, as shown in the table below. To make this easier in Sibelius 3, use these plug-ins to quickly find the number of any given plug-in.

Note that numbers 1-37 apply to the built-in plug-ins supplied with Sibelius 2; further plug-ins you add will use numbers 38 upwards.
