Shift + Y doesn't work

In order to control my techniques and articulations with my own rules, I want to use a new option in my custom rules, using the Shift + Y, but it doesn't work, there is no effect (though the Shift + I works fine, like in Notion 3).
I read on the forum I'm not alone.
Is there a way to make it run ?

Thanks for your help.

I just tested Shift + Y in the latest build and it is working.

Here are some screen shots of what you should see:

This is what comes up when you press "Shift + Y"

Place it in the score and name it to match the <group id="abcd">

(The plus sign is not necessary. That just denotes that you have to hit them simultaneously.)

Are there any other requirements for this to work, such as having a rules file somewhere or anything else?

On the Mac, if I create a new score in NOTION 4 (running in 64-bit mode); populate it with a NOTION 4 bundled Piano; and then do Shift + Y, nothing happens . . .

Lots of FUN! :)

Sorry, but it doesn't work !
I have just tried using a staff with Notion instrument, GPO, VSL... The Shift + Y doen't work.
Is it a mac problem ?

Surfwhammy, thank you, I thought I was going crazy... ;)

Okay everyone,

Sorry about this. We are going to spend the next few days trying to figure out the problem with this. There will be an update soon that will make this work for you. I truly apologize for the delay on it. It is coming.

Regards,

Josh

For the update, it might be useful to devise a way to remove the tiny diagonal line from eighth grace notes, since if you toggle through the set by pressing the "g" character on the keyboard, what you see does not have the tiny diagonal slash but when you put the note on the staff the tiny diagonal line appears, and apparently there are two articulations or whatever, where with the tiny diagonal line it is acciaccatura, but without the tiny diagonal line it is appoggiatura, which apparently is important . . .

Also, it might be nice to add symbols for mordents for visual purposes but not actually played when the audio is generated . . .

These are new things for me, and I like the way they look, but I think that musicians should learn how actually to play them, so I would start with them being only for visual purposes . . .

Lots of FUN! :)
