Double bar line placement

Hi one thing that is totally baffling is the placement of double bar lines. I generally write horn charts and lead sheets so often there is say an 8 bar rest which at the end of the 8 bars I would place a double bar line. In Finale the bar which I’ve highlighted (the 8th bar) the double bar line is placed at the end of the bar. When I apply the same in Dorico it places the double bar line at the beginning of the bar this is really throwing me off.

I always select the actual barline…

This is because a barline is essentially the same as a time signature in Dorico.

A lot to learn
