Nope. Chord symbols have to be attached to a note or rest,

I want to write all the chord diagrams used in a song in on line below the title.

So I write a chord to every note of the first line.
But when I try to center them the note positions get chaotic.
So: Is there a way to write chord diagrams without being attached to a note?

thanks a lot!
CK

Thanks so much for this. Only problem is I tried it with Sib 7 and had no luck whatsoever. Obviously some of the parameters are setup slightly differently but is there a way out for Sib 7 users?

Once again, thank you for this excellent blog.

Hi Louis, Thanks for reading my blog. Why not just use Focus on staves? I find it very handy and easy to especially if you use the Focus Sets plugins now available on the Sibelius download page.
http://www.sibelius.com/download/plugins/index.html?plugin=222
You just choose the staves you want to see while working and then choose not to see them when you go to print your score. With the focus set plugins you can set it up so with a key stroke or by going to the plugin menu you can see any selection of staves you want.
Best regards,
John

Thanx for your tip, it helped me in a way. My needs are a bit different than Pete. I need one or two lines instruments to write some percussion grooves. The lines are are helpful to write but i don’t really need to keep them after. It seems it’s not doable to hide the lines in Sibelius. I can do this with a clic with my ten years old Overture 3… So for the moment i have to train to put the notes on the lines without seeing them if i don’t want to see them at the end. Would you have another tip? Thanx anyway.
Louis Cesar
