"open" repeat section e.g. "repeat any number of times"

Hi,

Is there any way for me to input something like “repeat ad lib.” or “open” in place of the “play 4 times” text near the repetition sign?

I mean, without manually adding a text there, and using the existing functionality of bar repeats. I don’t care about the playback, it’s for making sure that the section should be repeated any number of times the performer will want to.

Thanks!

I just leave the repeat in place (Playback not important) and then add text that says “Repeat as desired”

If playback doesn’t matter use a repeat jump like D.C. or D.S. and change the text
