Actually slurs would not work with this plugin, and you do not need the plugin for slurs anyway. If you select 2 notes and add a slur it will go right between the notes, unlike other lines which are typically vertical above the first of the notes.
The lines in the plugin list tend to be about the only reasonable kinds of lines one would want to go between 2 notes. I mean, you could put a hairpin between notes, but that is not a very likely scenario.

In reply to Steve. Thanks for reading my blog! That is an interesting thought for an option.

This is a interesting plugin! I hope the author will extend the functionality to include other sorts of lines in a future version; I would have liked to use it for dotted slurs for example…

In reply to Pawel. Hello Pawel, Thank you for your kind words about my blog! No Sibelius cannot have different meters on different staves with in the same score. You will have to create 2 separate scores, one for the piano and one for the guitar.

I always read your blog when you write something, you are a real champion and I am studying from you. I have a problem recently, I am thinking whether it is possible in one score to save instruments in the different metre.For example guitar 3/4, piano 5/4 ?
