Interesting thread guys,
First of all, you can right-click directly on an object in Sibelius and
bring up the context menu.
The properties window is brought to the screen with a keyboard shortcut.
Since Sibelius allows for re-mapping the keyboard to implement most of its
features, I have programmed the letter "P" to bring up the properties box,
instead of the Sibelius default, "Playback".
Hope this clears a few things up.
I'd just like to add that practically everything Sibelius
can do can be mapped to keyboard shortcuts from within the
program, user-definable. No need for QuickKeys or any other
macro-keyboard program to run in the background. It is
possible to do away with the Sibelius numpad entry system
and to define things in a manner which makes sense to the
user, not forcing the user to use keystrokes that make sense
to a programmer.
Things are not as obtuse as some people are making them
sound. Imagine people dabbling with Finale and not finding
how to do things holding this conversation about how obtuse
Finale is.
Both programs could use UI improvements, but at least
Sibelius lets the user try to come up with a better system
which is individualized.
