How to make a lead sheet?

Dorico
1

Can someone point me in the right direction please.
I’ve just upgraded to Dorico 4 elements.
All I want to do is make a Jazz fake book style lead sheet , (Melody line with Chord symbols)
I really can’t be asked to wade through the online manual, Is there a video?
Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I’ve discovered what to do myself.
In the "Library " drop down menu there are a couple of fonts to choose from. That’s all I needed really but Dorico is far too over featured and is very difficult for the novice to navigate.
Thanks again.

Do you know the first steps guide?

Yeah I know what you mean - I had the same trouble when I wanted to fly a Sikorsky helicopter to Paris for the weekend; all I needed to know was how to take off and land but they made me read all these manuals and learn stuff I really didn’t need to know. Infuriating.
