Repeats popover

The following tables contain the entries for the repeats popover that you can use to input the different tremolos, repeat markers, repeat endings, and bar repeat, slash, and numbered bar regions available.

You can open the repeats popover in Write mode in any of the following ways when either an item is selected or the caret is active:

Press Shift-R.
In the Notations toolbox, click Popovers , then Repeats .
Select an existing repeat marker, slash region, or bar repeat and press Return.
Choose Write > Create Repeat.

The icon on the left-hand side of the popover matches the corresponding button in the Notations toolbox on the right of the window.
