Changing the total number of playthroughs in repeat endings

By default, each segment in repeat endings is played once, so each segment shows a single digit that indicates the playthrough for which it is used. You can increase the total number of playthroughs for repeat endings individually so that segments are played more than once.

Procedure

  1. Select the repeat endings whose total number of repeats you want to change. You can do this in Write mode and Engrave mode.
  2. In the Properties panel, activate No. times played in the Repeat Endings group.
  3. Change the value in the value field.
    Note

    You cannot have fewer repeats than the number of segments.

Result

The total number of repeats in the selected repeat endings is changed. This is updated automatically in the layout.

By default, Dorico Pro automatically adds any repeats not already assigned to specific segments to the final closed segment.

After Completing This Task

Once you have set the total number of repeats, you can then change which segment is used for each playthrough.
