Double-bar

Hi, is there a shortcut for double-bar?

Open the Bars and Barlines popover and enter || (two pipe symbols).

Which key is this on your keyboard? i? /? I don’t know.

On a Mac it is directly above the Return key. You’ll need to hold down Shift as well.

I think it’s the backslash key…

I am a Windows user.

It’s still the Shift+backslash key. Google it.

You can google for how to input pipe symbol with your keyboard language/operating system and language

If you are on macOS, you can visualise the Keyboard Viewer, and press then some modifier and look at the Keyboard Viewer, and see when and where the pipe symbol appears (there may exist a Keyboard viewer for Windows too)

(for example, on my German keyboard on macOS set to English, the pipe symbol appears when I press Option+7):

I found it. Thank you. ^^

You can also just type double into the popover.
