In the First Steps example a single bar is repeated and the chord symbols for that bar appear duplicated over the repeat region.
With a repeat region of two bars the chord symbols are not duplicated.
This makes sense from a notation point of view, but to get the feel of the piece through playback as far as I can see it is necessary to add the chord symbols manually into the repeat region and then possibly hide the chord symbols.
Is there a way to include the chord symbols in the chord track of the repeat region and optionally hide the chord symbols from the stave?
If not - can we have one?
Dorico does not currently include chord symbols when it plays back repeat bars. It’s a bit tricky, because repeat bars can be different for different instruments, while chord symbols are (by default) global and apply to the whole ensemble. The approach you’re taking of manually copying and hiding the chord symbols is the way to go for the time being.
