here´s the topic:
I just can speculate…I guess that Cubase and Dorico are two very different programs. The Dorico architecture does not get along with the Cubase workflow nicely. There are many many problems, reported by multiple users, which should have been adressed BEFORE the switch to the new score editor was made. After a year and a full version circle, not much happend to improve basic workflow problems. One of them is the repeats-situation, others are:
- limitations with instrument types, mainly with non-classical instruments (guitar, drumset)
- no user defineable instrument types
- hiding of certain elements, not just notes
- no user presets, I´m forced to make “my” settings again and again
- commands hidden in layers of menus
- very few key commands, so much more clicking
- functions which are only available by using key commands, not appearing in menus
- lots of missing symbols
- fixed presets for many graphical aspects, with no chance to change for certain situations
- no control over the number of bars per staff
- selecting notes is strangely hard, sometimes impossible
- just global settings for distances between staffs
etc.
I´m afraid we have to wait some more years, to come at least close to the functionality of the old score editor. In my 30 years with Cubase this is the first time for me that an essential part of the program got erased, replaced with a new score editor, that has just a fraction of the functionality I was used to use on an almost daily basis.
