Hey, pretty new to Sibelius.

Having come from Musescore, you can add any text to a chord symbol. Even if it's unrecognised, it'll still print fine.

I want to add a natural symbol to some of my chords and don't seem to be able to. When I copy and paste one in (one I pulled from the right click menu in a text box), it appears as a different symbol entirely.

As much as it's not strictly necessary, some chords like m7b5(♮9) and 7b9#9(♮13) are ones I'd rather not go without.

If this just isn't possible in Sibelius, I'm sure I can work around it, though I would appreciate a hand :D
