Hello community. I am trying to perform what seems to be a simple task but not understanding the process. I have a chord that repeats for two measures. I would like to place the repeat symbol (shown in image) into measure two. I see how to access the desired symbol under Library > Music Symbols but see now way to insert it into my score. Can someone please guide me through the process? I am using Dorico 5 on a Macbook. Thank you!
I assume you mean that you want to show this repeat bar symbol in line with the chord symbols above the staff?
If so, I suggest you create it using system-attached text: type Shift+Alt+X, then right-click and choose Insert Music Text. In the dialog that appears, type repeat1bar into the search box, which should show you the symbol you’re looking for: double-click the symbol to insert it into the text item.

Thanks, Dan. Exactly what I was looking for. One tweak to the solution is on Mac I found it to be Shift+Option+X.
