Here are two nifty tricks to help you expand your Sibelius  selection tool box.To make it really effective open sibelius and try it out straight away – then make sure you teach someone else the same trick within a day or so.

Selecting just the notes you want in a bar

is as simple as command click on a mac or control click in windows.
BRILLIANT!

You can also copy quickly using the alt key

If you have something selected you can point the arrow/caveat to another bar and hit alt  and like magic you notes appear – this is faster than cut and paste.

Hopefully these two ideas will give you even more time to do what you love – writing music. Don’t forget to go and show somebody else.
