The text shown in the selected repeat markers is changed. This replaces the text in the selected
repeat markers without removing any symbols.
Positions of repeat markers
Repeat markers are placed above the staff by default, and at the same positions as other system
objects. Coda sections are separated from the preceding music by a gap in the system.
You can move repeat markers to different rhythmic positions in Write mode.
You can change the default staff-relative placement of repeat markers in each layout
independently in the Repeat Markers section of the Staves and Systems page in Setup >
Layout Options.
Repeat markers are categorized as system objects in Dorico SE, which you can show above the
rst bracket of selected instrument families. You can change the instrument families above which
system objects appear in each layout independently, for example, if you want repeat markers to
appear at multiple vertical positions in each system in the full score only.
