My transport panel has got really large text and is unreadable. Please see the attached jpeg.

Anyone had similar and know how to fix.

Grateful for any support with this issue.

Thanks

On a Mac, the first thing to try when unexpected things happen, is to pull down the Apple menu and select "Restart".

Try again after the restart, and report back whether things are better.

Yes - that has fixed it thank you ... although full Mac restart not required.

Have experimented today and found that I just need to save the score and then reopen to get things back to normal. It would appear that Sibelius doesn't like to be left open - it seems to occur when I return having left the computer and my screen saver has kicked in.

Incidentally - how do you add your system specification at the end of your posts? Is it something you set somewhere or type each time. Please advise.

Thank you - another problem solved.

Any thoughts on why my text style looks OK in Sibelius but doesn't when exported - see jpeg. Again this has been working on previous exports but has been a problem in the last week or so. I only have one score open.

If you are using "layers", then ensure that the layer numbers differ by at least 1. Having two layers with the same layer number yields undefined results, which might be different according to rendering method.

I'm not using layers. I've checked the text styles parameters and they seem fine. Text is set to white so the seems no reason why the export is changing the text to black.

Maybe you should use Layers and bring the white text "to the front".
