Given that the pre-Sibelius 4 discussions of linked parts here in this forum revolved around the idea of implementing them by extending Special Part Extraction, where does the idea that it *wouldn't* be two-way by default come from? The whole principle behind the discussion was that parts would be a limited view of the same data as the full score. That idea has inherent within it two-way editing. Of course, "two-way" editing is an incorrect concept, as it reflects the idea that the two views are somehow based on independent data, when, in fact, the whole point is that you're editing exactly the same data. I'm confused by the need to mention this, as it was inherent in the original discussion here on the list, as is also explicitly described in the Sibelius demo. It's also been repeatedly mentioned in our discussion of Sibelius's implementation. -- David W.
