- Complete path and filename
- Contents of Score Info fields
- Time signature
- Key signature
- Instrumentation
and more.
The plug-in was updated on 2 March 2006 to fix a problem with incorrectly logging scores with minor key signatures.

Get Page Count
Version 01.08.00
Added 15 Dec 2006 (last updated 10 Dec 2023)
For use with Sibelius 4, Sibelius 4.1, Sibelius 5, Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
__Get Page Count stores the number of pages in a score (at the time the plug-in is run) into the Other Information field of the File > Score Info. This makes the number of pages available for use in text fields (such as \"Page x of y\") if the $MOREINFO wildcard is used. The full text would be \"Page $PAGENUM of $MOREINFO\". If the number of pages changes, the plug-in should be rerun, but any wildcards will be automatically updated. __Updated 4 April 2010. In Sib 6 or later, the plugin will store the page count both in the full score and in each part, so a footer containing the MOREINFO wildcard will be correct in the parts. __Updated 5 April 2010 to allow you to specify different Score Info locations for the page count data. __Updated 21 June 2012 to allow count to exclude Special Page Break title pages and following blank pages. __ As of Sibelius 7.1.3, you can use the NumPages wildcard, and this plugin should not be needed. ____Updated 10 December 2023. Version 01.08.00. This update adds a fixed offset adjustment to the number of pages, after discovering that in some cases the plugin gets the wrong answer when determining the number of title and other blank pages before the first bar in the score. If the full score and every part have the same number of leading blank pages, you can use the offset instead of the title page adjustment. In that case use a negative adjustment. Since the plugin processes the full score and all parts, this will not help if the score and parts have different numbers of leading blank pages. __The traced outputs gives more information about the number of pages the plugin is detecting. __My current impression is that some bug in Sibelius is confusing the number of blank pages.- Download GetPageCount.zip (4K, downloaded 900 times)

Exchange Staff Contents
Version 01.40.00
Added 06 Oct 2007 (last updated 26 Apr 2021)
For use with Sibelius 5, Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
Swaps the contents of 2 selected staves. If two staves are selected, they will be swapped. If more than two staves are selected, the top and bottom staves are swapped.
Updated 1 July 2012 to fix problems with irregular bars and some unusual selection.
Updated 4 November 2012 to fix problems with partially selected bars. Thanks, Laurence! Please note that you should not use dragged-box passage selections with this plugin - use keyboard or click-shift click selecting instead.
Updated 31 May 2018. Added option to make octave changed when exchanging between octave-transposing instruments, such as piccolo or guitar, or exchanging an instrument with a treble clef with an instrument that has a bass clef, as in the staves of a piano. A PDF file explaining this is included in the zip file. The option is off by default. If you hide the dialog after the first run, and want to set the option you can run the plugin with no selection, which will bring up a dialog and let you change the settings. The settings are not retained across Sibelius sessions. Thanks to Ilkay Bora Oder for suggesting this, and the Robert Puff and Philip Rothman for trying it out.
Updated 25 August 2018. Version 01.30.00. Added ability to swap the first and last bars in a passage selection in a single staff. The bars must be fully selected and must be the same size.
Updated 26 April 2021. Added support for Run Plugin Hide Dialog.

Create Insert Symbol Plugin
Version 02.07.00
Added 06 Oct 2007 (last updated 29 Sep 2018)
For use with Sibelius 5, Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
Lets you create and install new plug-ins that, when run, will insert a chosen symbol of a chosen size into a score. If you assign a shortcut to the new plug-ins, you will have, in effect, a way to assign a shortcut to an individual symbol.
The generated plugins will be put by default in the Zymbols subfolder of your user Plug-ins folder. The name will include the symbol name, the size, its attachment status, and its position offsets.
In order to assign shortcuts to the newly-created plug-ins, you must first close and restart Sibelius, so the new plug-ins will be loaded.
Updated 2 April 2009 for internal code cleanup
Updated April 13, 2009. Added the ability to choose vertical position of a staff symbol relative to a selected note.
Updated 22 July 2009. Added ability to center a symbol horizontally in a bar, and also the ability, in Sib 6, to turn off Magnetic Layout for inserted symbols
Updated 13 October 2010. Fixed bug that ignored clef change in bar 1.
Updated 9 August 2011 for Sib 7 user file location compatibility
Updated 22 October 2011 to fix Sib 7 file changes.
Updated 7 March 2016 to have default be symbol be first selected symbol, if any.

Insert One Symbol
Version 01.85.00
Added 06 Oct 2007 (last updated 07 Mar 2014)
For use with Sibelius 5, Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
Inserts a symbol to a selected location. It is meant to have a shortcut assigned to it, to give Sibelius the ability to effectively assign a shortcut to a symbol. Updated to list Sibelius 5 symbols.
To determine which symbol will be inserted, a dialog comes up the first time you run the plugin in a session, or if you run the plugin with no selection. The dialog lets you select a symbol, its size, and whether it is attached to a system or a staff. The dialog lets you put several symbols into a list, which is saved across Sibelius sessions. By re-running it and selecting a different symbol, you change the symbol that will be inserted when Insert One Symbol is run.
Updated 2 April 2009 for internal code cleanup
Updated April 13, 2009. Added the ability to choose vertical position of a staff symbol relative to a selected note. Also, Insert One Symbol Show Dialog is no longer required. Now the dialog comes up the first time you run the plugin in a session, or if you run the plugin with no selection. A checkbox on the dialog will let you run the plugin with no dialog showing.
Updated 22 July 2009. Added ability to center a symbol horizontally in a bar, and also the ability, in Sib 6, to turn off Magnetic Layout for inserted symbols
Updated 13 October 2010. Fixed bug that ignored clef change in bar 1.
Use this version for Sibelius 5 and later. For Sibelius version 4 use the plugin Insert One Symbol for Sibelius 4.

Hidden Instrument Change
Version 01.80.00
Added 22 Oct 2007 (last updated 24 Sep 2020)
For use with Sibelius 5, Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
Adds an instrument change to No instrument(hidden).
This is equivalent to using Create > Other > Instrument Change > Others > No instrument (Hidden) with no clef and no warning text. Assign a shortcut if you will use it often.
Updated 22 October 2009. This update restores the original instrument after a passage selection, which it did before Sibelius 6.1
Updated 5 January 2010. This update lets a change at the start of the first bar hide the initial clef. Also, if you run with no selection it brings up some options to allow you to choose warning text.
Updated 24 March 2010 minor bug fix.
Updated 27 April 2010.
Note that there are 2 ways that the plugin might not restore the original instrument as of Sibelius 6.2. The first is if you make a non-passage (blue box) selection. So if you want the restoration, always make a passage selection. The second way is if you select a single bar, and have turned off the Note Input Preference Restore Original Item After Single Bar Selection. If you want the plugin to restore the original instrument, you must turn this preference on.
Updated 15 May 2010. New option to Always restore instrument in single bar selection (on by default).
Updated 24 September 2020. Added the ability to apply the change to all selected staves, not just the first one. Only actually selected staves will be processed, so you can use a discontiguous selection.
Run the plugin with no selection to see an options dialog. By default the plugin will skip staves hidden by Focus On Staves, or staves all of whose bars are hidden by Hide Empty Staves in the range of the selection.

Save Score With Date
Version 01.20.00
Added 17 Mar 2008 (last updated 07 Mar 2014)
For use with Sibelius 5, Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
This plugin saves a copy of the current score, combining the current date and/or time with the file name. The original score remains open and unchanged. This is useful for making date-stamped backup scores. The plugin requires a simple one-time setup to determine the format of the date on your machine. It allows you to choose one of a number of formats for the saved file name (such as file_03132008.sib or 081303_file.sib), and it will remember your preferences.

Adds a highlight to all selected staves, rather than just the top staff (which is what Create Highlight does). The highlight is not continuous, but is one Highlight line per selected staff.
Updated April 10, 2008 to allow coloring the highlight, and to delete selected highlights in addition to adding them. There is now a dialog that can be turned off after the first display.
Updated April 12, 2008 to fix endpoint on single bar selections
Updated 31 May, 2010 to include Comment user colors if Comments are present
Updated 17 May 2018. Highlights are now retracted to the end of the last bar if the entire bar is selected, rather than running over into the following bar.

Updated 7 October 2008 to allow multiple dynamics at same location and improve choice of dynamics for multi-stave instruments.
Updated 12 May 2009 to show multiple adjacent hairpins.
Updated 14 August 2011 to filter out some expression text that is unlikely to be dynamics
Updated 16 October 2012 to change Dynamics text to be recognized as Expression text that matches a list of dynamics words.

Hidden Key Signatures
Version 01.21.00

Add Authentic Jazz Flips
Added 08 Jan 2010 (last updated 07 Mar 2014)
For use with Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
The default fonts, symbols and lines provided with Sibelius, including Inkpen2, do not currently contain an authentic-looking jazz articulation called a flip. A flip (sometimes called a turn) looks somewhat like half of a flying seagull and is used to indicate the pitch rising above a first note and then dropping down to a second note. The item most similar to a flip that is provided with Sibelius is the guitar bend staff line.
This plug-in allows you to bulk replace guitar bend staff lines with flips created from a provided TIF graphic. The recommended usage is to create your score using guitar bend staff lines in all the places where you want to have flips, and when the score is near completion, run this plug-in to replace the bends with flips.
By inserting flips as graphic items, it ensures that they will be preserved if your score is submitted to SibeliusMusic.com or if you send the score file to another Sibelius user (an engraver, publisher, etc.), regardless of the fonts you and the recipient have installed.
This plug-in is for visual purposes only and has no effect on sound playback.
This plug-in requires that you move the flip.tif graphic included in the archive you download to your user's application data folder, which is by default C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\flip.tif for Windows XP, C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming for Windows Vista/Windows 7, and /Users/username/Library/Application Support/flip.tif for Mac OS X. If your folder is located elsewhere or the TIF file is missing, the plug-in will advise you on how to correct the problem.

Export Selection As Score
Version 01.33.00
Added 23 Jan 2010 (last updated 20 Nov 2020)
For use with Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
Creates a score containing only the contents of the selection. It ensures that the instrument type, time signature, key signature, and clef at the start of the new score match those present at the same location in the original.
Updated 20 April 2010 to preserve special barlines at end of selection
Updated 10 June 2010 to delete all versions but the current one.
Updated 2 August 2010 to better handle file names with periods and without extensions.
Updated 9 October 2010. If run from a part, the part will be in view at the end. The other staves and parts, which will be empty, are still in the score. To get only the part as a score you should extract the part before or after running this plugin. Version 1.22.
Updated 11 August 2011 to save the score after removing unused bars so it will be the right size even if the user does not save it. Version 1.26.
This plugin ships with Sibelius 7 and later so use the shipping version
Updated 11 October 2020. Version 01.32.00. There are significant improvements so it is being made available for install after Sib 6. Installing it will cause it to be called instead of the shipping version. Be sure you do not already have a copy of this plugin in another user plugin folder.
This version fixes bugs that caused irregular bars, including pickups, to expand to full size, and for deleted rests to reappear. It will also restore systems hidden by Hide Empty Staves, which were previously unhidden.
For other plugins that may call this, it now returns the newly created score from the Run() method.
Updated 20 November 2020. Version 01.33.00. Fixed a bug where in some cases music in the resulting score was not deleted. The intention is that if you select parts of bars, or leave some staves in a system unselected, then the unselected portions of the first and last selected bars, and the staves outside the selections will be cleared of music. This fix will restore that behavior, while retaining the previous version fixes.

Install New Plugin
Version 02.03.00
Added 08 May 2010 (last updated 09 May 2021)
For use with Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
Moves a Sibelius plugin file, which is typically downloaded and unzipped from the Sibelius Plugin Download page, into a subfolder of your user plugins folder.
The intention is that the file is unzipped to a convenient location (the same one every time), and the plugin will get the list of available subfolders, and let you choose which folder should get the plugin. You can also create a new subfolder.
The plugin does itself need to be installed before you can use it, so you will still need to follow the instructions on the Sibelius Plugins Download page to install it (in Sib 7 use the plugin installer).
Updated 9 August 2011 for Sib 7 user file location compatibility
Updated 29 February 2012 to clarify the fact that it installs .plg files and not .zip files.
Updated 14 April 2014 to fix incorrect folder names in Sib 7.5
Updated 26 February 2016 to greatly improve file copy speed.
Updated 12 March 2016. It will now let you install a folder of plugin (.plg) files, checks for duplicate plugins, and by default copies rather than moves the original plugin file.
Updated 15 March 2016. If the plugin finds a plugin that is already installed it will issue a warning but will not replace the installed plugin.
Updated 3 July 2018. Added option to allow overwriting if installing into the same plugin subfolder. Installing if the plugin is already in a different subfolder is still disallowed to prevent duplicates.
Updated 09 May 2021. Version 02.03.00. Fixed intermittent crashing bug.

Insert Bars with Different Time Signatures
Added 14 Aug 2010 (last updated 07 Mar 2014)
For use with Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
This plug-in can be used to insert many consecutive bars with different time signatures in a single step. It is particularly convenient to insert many bars with alternating time signatures. The bars will be inserted before a passage selection or at the end of the score if there is no passage selection. The time signature at the insertion point is restored at the end of the inserted bars.

Run Plugins By Name
Version 02.35.00
Added 11 Aug 2011 (last updated 06 Jan 2023)
For use with Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
__Run Plugins By Name lets you find plugins to run by name in a sorted list. __Recently run plugins are shown at the top of the list, in most-recently run order first, followed by all the other plugins in alphabetical order. __By default you select a name in the list, and click the Run button or type enter to run the plugin. If you want to work more with a mouse, there is an option to run a plugin by simply clicking on a list entry. That does not work for the currently selected entry [the click must change the selection to run], so to run that plugin, type Enter or click Run. __Assign a shortcut to this plugin to have a list of recently run plugins easily available. __Updated 14 December 2011 to give better file name information when there are plugins with the same menu name. __Updated 31 December 2011 for better error recovery when a plugin is renamed or deleted. __Updated 13 October 2-12 adding option to change the maximum number of recent plugins on the list. __Updated 12 August 2014 to allow specifying zero recent plugins. __Updated 6 October 2014 to speed up the list sort so it starts up faster. __Updated 16 January 2017.The option to run a plugin when the list box was clicked has been disabled for Sib 7.5 and later because the list box appeared to receive a click before a user could click on it. It is still available for Sib 6 and 7.1.3. __Updated 13 February 2017. Added a Find button so you could search the plugin list without needed to know the exact name. I am adding a PDF document to the zip file explaining some intricacies of using the find button. __Updated 15 February 2017. Some bug fixes, and rearranged dialog to fit a laptop screen better. Clicking the "Find button default" button now takes effect immediately. __Updated 17 February 2017. Rearranged dialog buttons slightly to make it easier to switch between Find and list mode. Each has advantages based on context. __Updated 9 September 2017 for some minor speed improvements. __Updated 18 October 2017. Cleaned up handling of deleted or renamed plugins showing up in the recent plugin list. __Updated 20 October 2017. Fixed some potential crashing bugs __Updated 19 February 2018. Added additional plugin Run Last Named Plugin, which will run the first plugin in the recent plugin list created by Run Plugins By Name. If you assign as shortcut to it, it is very fast to run a plugin with Run Plugins By Name, and then keep rerunning that plugin without waiting for the dialog to come up. __Updated 13 March 2018. Improved reporting of duplicate plugins. __Updated 27 April 2018. Added Run Stopwatch option will will time the plugin currently being run, putting the result in the plugin trace window. __Updated 2 May 2018. Run Plugins By Name now saves the Run Stopwatch Setting to Preferences, and Run Last Named Plugin will time a plugin if that preferences was set. __Updated 15 July 2018 Version 02.20.00. For calling plugins, Run() now returns the filename of the last plugin run. This makes it easier for a plugin that calls Run Plugins By Name to know what was run so they can call it again. Also added some API routines for callers. No specific user features, but Browse Selected Objects wants to use at least this version. __Updated 22 Feb 2020. Version 02.30.00. Mainly typo corrections in both plugins. __Updated 05 September 2021. Version 02.31.00. Change the duplicate plugin warnings that are given the first time the plugin is run in a session to correct which copy would be run, and removed the unreliable version number from the data identifying each copy. __Updated 06 January 2023. Version 02.35.00. Updated the user interface of the main dialogs to improve tab ordering and also to change the way Find Plugin works. Previously, Find would select the next matching entry in the list box. Now it will display new list box contents showing all the items that match the search criteria. This makes it easier to do something like looking for all plugins that relate to Symbols.- Download RunPluginsByName.zip (12K, downloaded 1380 times)

Edit Initial Instruments
Version 02.20.00
Added 14 Sep 2011 (last updated 07 Mar 2014)
For use with Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
Allows you see view and change the initial instrument assigned to each staff in a score.
This can be particularly useful if you open a score created prior to Sibelius 4, where sometimes the conversion to newer versions of Sibelius causes instruments to be assigned to unnamed treble or bass staves, which play back as piano.

Export Manuscript Paper Unchanged
Version 01.04.00
Added 21 Sep 2011 (last updated 07 Mar 2014)
For use with Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
This plugin will export the active score with no changes (all music, text, bars, etc., are unchanged) as Manuscript Paper. This is comparable to how Sibelius 6 exported Manuscript Paper. Note, though, that you will need to restart Sibelius to see the new Manuscript Papers in the File New list.
In File:Export:ManuscriptPaper, Sibelius 7 removes music, text, and all but 8 bars, which is often, but not always, desirable, so this plugin offers an alternative.

Replace Symbol
Version 01.09.00
Added 25 Apr 2013 (last updated 30 Jan 2021)
For use with Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
Replaces one symbol with another, which is normally not possible in Sibelius.
You can choose the name of a symbol that is in your score to be replaced, the type the name of the replacement symbol. If the replacement symbol is also defined in the score, you can use the Copy text button to avoid retyping.
The symbol name is case sensitive and must be typed exactly as defined in the Insert Symbol dialog. Note that some symbols have the same name, and this plugin cannot differentiate between such symbols.
Updated 2 May 2013 to make the dialog button larger to avoid truncating text.
Updated 30 January 2021. Version 01.07.00. This plugin adds a new Symboland deletes the original. Added more general routine to transfer Bar Object properties to the new Symbol. Color, ColorAlpha, CueSize, Hidden, and other properties are now retained.

Version 02.18.56
Added 26 Jan 2016 (last updated 23 Aug 2024)

__Provides a list of plugins that can be run using the shortcuts in the list. The list can be edited by the user without editing the plugin itself, using the Customize feature. This lets you add plugins to a list in a specific order which will remain until you customize again. Each of the up to 35 plugins will have a specific one character shortcut (1-9 and a-z) so it should make having a working set of plugins easier to manage. __It is suggested that you assign a keyboard shortcut to this plugin, and then use this plugin to run the other plugins you commonly use. __Updated 10 Feb 2016. Now there will be a set of default shipping plugins that will appear in the list until the list is customized so there will be a starting point. __Updated 3 March 2016. Changes default shipping set. Added options to trace list and import list from a file and sort the list. __Minor change to allow blank lines in the text import file __Updated 16 March 2016 to widen some dialog buttons. __ Updated 31 March 2016 to always check for duplicates at startup, not just when customizing __Updated 3 April 2016 to improve an error message __Updated 18 January 2017. Dialog was laid out differently to allow all 35 possible plugins to be listed without scrolling. New option to run plugins just by clicking in the list box or typing a letter was added for Sib 7.1.3 or later. __Updated 8 September 2019. Version 02.10.10. Fixed the option Run Plugin if List Box Changes, which had immediately run the first plugin in the list if run from a keyboard shortcut. There is now a placeholder entry at the start of the list to support that feature. If you assign My Plugins to a keyboard shortcut, you can run any plugin in your list with 2 keystrokes. __Updated 1 July (O Canada) 2021. Version 02.12.00. Fixed unwanted warning message when using the Customize option. __Updated 22 July 2021. Version 01.16.00. Removed "Run if list box changes options, so you will need to press Enter or Run Plugin after selecting from the list.

Impose Sketch onto Template
Version 3.02
Added 17 Aug 2016 (last updated 30 Jan 2017)
For use with Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
Impose Sketch onto Template
For use with Sibelius 6.x, 7.x and 8.x.
This plug-in will impose the structure of a piano vocal score, sketch score or any score that you need to extract the structure from, onto a template file, transferring time signatures, key signatures, tempo text (tempo, repeat, metronome mark, etc.), bar number changes, special barlines (double, repeat, dashed, final, etc.), system symbols, system lines (rit, 1st endings, etc.), and rehearsal marks.
The plug-in will not work on a file which starts with an irregular first bar. In this case, you will need to make the bar regular again by deleting its� contents before running the plug-in. Once the information has been transferred to the template score, you can use the plug-in �Add pickup bar� to add the irregular bar back to the template score, and then go back to the original file and reinstate the irregular bar and its� contents by performing edit > undo.
Usage
1. Setting up the template file
The template file must:
- have only one bar
- have no key signature (open key)
- have no time signature (set up as 4/4, then manually delete)
- use a title wildcard (\$title) to transfer the sketch title
- use a subtitle wildcard (\$subtitle) to transfer the sketch subtitle
Title, header, composer and any other system text that forms part of the template file should be attached to the first bar, as it would be usually.
Tip: If you are adding the contents of the sketch staves to the template file, setting �auto system breaks� to every 4 or 8 bars (depending on the content density) gives better page distribution of material which can then be tweaked as necessary.
For ease of navigation to the template file, it seems to help if it is located in the same folder as the sketch file. This will shortcut the menus to the relevant folder when opening and saving the template. It can also help to set the default saving location to the folder that contains the sketch file and the template file. This path can be set by going to Sibelius > Preferences > Saving and Exporting > Saving Scores.
2. Running the plug-in
- Open the file you want to extract the bar structure from.
- Run the plug-in and follow the on-screen instructions.
The plug-in may be found (by default) in the following locations:
- Sibelius 7.x, Sibelius 8.x: Home tab > Plug-ins
- Sibelius 6.x: Plug-ins menu > Other

Thanks to Neil Sands for his support and advice on the creation of this plug-in.
Version history
Version 2.01 adds the option to include the sketch staves on the bottom of the template, and also the option to add their contents.
Version 3.01 adds the option to transfer the title and subtitle of the sketch score to the template file so long as those fields are utilised in 'score info�. This update also separates the metronome mark and metric modulation text styles from the standard tempo text so that they can be selected independently, and adds the option to select Timecode. Sketch score brackets, braces and barlines will now correctly transfer to the template file if the option to add the staves is enabled. This update also offers a filename for the �save� dialog box, and users are able to specify a filename extension for the template file in order to distinguish it from its sketch counterpart.
Version 3.02 fixes a bug when using the plug-in with Sibelius 8.3 and higher, which would add a stray double bar between bar 1 and 2 if Key Signatures were selected to impose.

Add Rehearsal Mark Plus Double Barline
Version 01.06.00
Added 06 Dec 2016 (last updated 12 Jun 2018)
For use with Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
Adds a consecutive Rehearsal Mark and a double barline to the start or end of a selected bar. By default it will add them to the start of the bar containing the first selected object, but if you run the plugin with no selection, it will bring up a dialog that will let you change whether insertion is at the start of end of the bar.
If the bar is at the start of a system, the double barline will appear at the end of the previous system, which is actually the same location.
This would be a good plugin for a shortcut.
Upgraded 6 December 2016. The plugin will now work if you select a barline. If you select a barline for the first bar in a system it cannot tell if the leading or trailing barline is selected, and will ask you where to put the objects.
Updated 12 June 2018 to avoid crashing when adding RM to last bar in score when there was a system selection.

No Duplicates Paste
Version 1.0
Added 16 Jan 2017 (last updated 16 Jan 2017)
For use with Sibelius 6, Sibelius 7.1, Sibelius 7.5, Sibelius 8.x, Sibelius 18.x, Sibelius 19.x, Sibelius 20.x, Sibelius 21.x, Sibelius 22.x, Sibelius 23.x and Sibelius 24.x
For Sibelius 6, 7, 7.5 and 8
This plugin pastes a selection without doubling lines and text when bars are partially selected.
It supersedes the Complete Copy and Paste plugins which are now deprecated.
It has the following advantages over them:
- Conventional copying is used. No copy plugin is required.
- It does not affect the draw order of notes, lines or text in any way.
- It supports multipaste, ie copying a passage as many times as possible in a selected passage.
- By default, Sibelius has two shortcuts for pasting. Shift+Insert is the least used of the two, so it can be assigned to this plugin if desired.
Many thanks to Bob Zawalich for his encouragement and technical contributions to this plugin.

This is for replacing corrupted parts or for starting over with parts. The original score is changed, and no copy is made. Any previous edits to parts will be lost. Please be sure you want to do this!
The score will be left unsaved, open, and with the full score displayed, so you can close without saving if you change your mind.
If you run it under Run Plugin On Folder Of Scores, be sure to have that plugin save the scores it opens.
