Edit a single chord symbol in dorico 6

Hi there.

I would like to edit a single chord symbol Instance ( it was possible before when double clicking on a symbol in engrave mode : I can’t find this anymore in Dorico 6 (!) . Getting crazy trying to do this : I want to show 2 different versions of let’s say a dim chord. I want to show “C dim” on the first chord line, and “C°” on th second to show my students alternative versions : to do so I need to find this function again…..must be better and simpler no ?

Double-clicking a chord symbol in Engrave mode will open the chord symbol kerning editor in v6, but you can change that in Preferences:

You can also use the context menu (right-click menu) or Edit > Notations > Chord Symbols and Diagrams > Chord Symbol Appearance.
