I wasn't sure where to put this, since this is really a Sibelius question. I haven't had any luck searching their forum OR this one, so here goes...

Jim Campbell at UK gave me some great sightreading sheets that had noteheads only and I'm trying to recreate them. Is there a shortcut in Sibelius to get rid of all the stems so it shows only noteheads? I'm a little tired of having to select every stem and drag into the notehead one at a time.

Anyone have a way to do that? Maybe a select all feature I just don't see?

Thanks guys!

Hey Ralph,

I'm pretty sure you accomplish this by changing the notehead. You aren't really changing the notehead, but I think this is the same place you look for this adjustment.

Um... Is this where you use Shift-Alt -- then the number keys on the left side of the keyboard. If it's not that, try Ctrl/Cmd-Alt -- left number keys.

Later,

Does Sibelius have some sort of Staff Style option like Finale?  In Finale all you have to do is apply a Stemless Notes staff style to a measure/group of measures and that will automatically remove the stems.

Yes, in a nutshell, you should be able to get it to work through ";Edit Noteheads"; in the House Style menu. Actually, I wish I had thought of this first before posting my first response.

You may have to change the symbol, then select a box with ";nothing"; in it to get the right look.
