"Repeat ending" that does not repeat

How is this ending structure accomplished in Dorico for engraving and playback? The 1st ending does not repeat, but instead jumps over the 2nd ending to the Patter. At the end of the Patter there is a D.S. back to the chorus and we play forward taking the 2nd ending which is the Fine.

My guess would be to use DC/DS jumps and hide them.

Take a look at the following Dorico project which has the playback structure you want:

That works like a charm - thanks! Re- inputting the endings: When I input an ending, Dorico automatically puts the repeat sign; so I simply replaced it with a double-bar. Or, if the double-bar is already there, Dorico leaves it alone. Is that how you did it?

Yes, I replaced the end repeat barline after the first ending with a double barline.
