Sib. 7.1.3: Plugin Updates - "Keypad" plugins
Posted by Bob Zawalich - 14 Jul 10:35PM (edited 14 Jul 10:35PM)
Plugin Updates - "Keypad" plugins

The following plugins have been updated:

Add Fingering To Notes For Sibelius 7 and Later
Add Circle Symbols to Notes
Add Articulations to Notes

These plugins use a keypad interface. In Sib 6, you could type a number and the value of that key would be applied to the next selected notes. In Sib 7, the mechanism that captured keystrokes, which used a hidden listbox, would no longer work, and keystrokes were often swallowed by the listbox.

The plugin use an Edit Box to capture the keystrokes, and you must press the Enter key to apply the numbers, symbols, or articulations to the next selected notes.

This is described in detail in the document Update to the Keypad Plugins for Sibelius 7 and later.

The shipping plugin Add Fingering to Notes has the same problem, but since it is a shipping plugin I cannot use it. I recommend using Add Fingering To Notes For Sibelius 7 instead in Sib 7 or later.

See the dialog screenshots.
