Join Jenny Amaya for an in-depth discussion in this video Making non-contiguous selections of staves (and focusing on staves), part of Sibelius 6 Essential Training.
We saw in the previous video how non-contiguous selection of objects can be a…very powerful editing tool.…In this video lesson, we'll see how the non-contiguous selection of staves opens…up a powerful view feature in our score that can help speed up our workflow.…This is a pretty large score, so I am going to select the oboe here and zoom out a…little bit using Command+Minus, or Ctrl+Minus on PC, so we can see a little bit more of…the score. And we need to decide what staves we might want to edit together, and…then we'll select them by clicking in them.…
So, finding staves that have similar rhythms.…Let's say you want to edit a soli section or just edit staves that…have similar rhythms.…So I have selected the bass clarinet.…I am going down the staff to do non-contiguous selection of staves.…It's just like non-contiguous selection of objects.…You are going to hold down the Command key on Mac or the Ctrl key on PC.…We are going to select all these staves down the score that look alike by…clicking with your mouse.…
