Inputting bar repeats
You can input bar repeat regions when at least one bar before the region contains notes.
PROCEDURE
1.
In Write mode, select the bars on a single staff that you want to show as a bar repeat.
NOTE
You cannot input bar repeat regions in the rst bar of a ow.
2. Press Shift-R to open the repeats popover.
3. Enter the appropriate entry for the type of bar repeat region you want into the popover.
For example, enter %2,2 to repeat the previous two bars, grouped in two.
4. Press Return to close the popover.
RESULT
A region of the selected duration is input, in which the specied type of bar repeat symbol is
shown in the staff at the intervals
specied.
NOTE
You can also input bar repeat regions during note input; however, this inputs bar repeat
regions from the bar containing the currently selected note. As bar repeats are mostly
shown in empty bars, this is likely to produce unintended results.
You can also input bar repeat regions by clicking Create Bar Repeat Region in the Bar
Repeats group of the Repeat Structures panel. However, this only inputs a bar repeat region
containing single-bar repeats.
AFTER COMPLETING THIS TASK
You can change how bar repeats are grouped.
