Hi all,
I sent this reply yesterday, but because I'm not as competent with my email program as
I am with my notation software, I sent it only to Johannes rather than to the whole
list.
Just in case there's still an appetite for all of this, here's my response to

I don't know whether the feature set for 2k5 has been decided yet, but it

Will,
Thanks for your reply. Since you say you never used Sibelius in OS 9,
I'm guessing you jumped on board with Sib 2.0? I just wanted to point
out the items that you claim as not true were all very real

Please consider the following: The large wind orchestra score has several
time signature changes. Among these are sections of measures in 5/4 time.
The composer, via dotted barlines within these 5/4 measures, switches
between 2+3 and 3+2 beats per measure according to the feel of the music.

If there's to be numerous alternations between 3+2 and 2+3 sections,

You don't say what OS you are using, but I suspect it's not OS X, since
it has built-in support for unzipping zip files.

There's a way to do pickups, under the Options menu, Pickup Measure but
the much superior way is what you describe, using a different meter and
hiding it so the real meter for the movement shows.
