2 bar repeat
OK, I've been, up to now, using the workaround to drag the "repeat last bar" symbols over each other over the bar line, and adding a "2" in text above. This is good, but can need lots of fiddling to make good again especially if changing any layout or measure properties.
So I've been reading up and updating myself, and found the 2 bar repeat symbol, in Symbols in Musescore 2. I have seen elsewhere in the forum, a screenshot of this symbol appearing in the users "Repeats and Jumps" palette. I can't find a way to do this - how do I add the two bar repeat from Symbols into my Repeats and Jumps palette?

Yeah, I've already read this thread up and down several times - but can't find where it explains how to place the two bar repeat symbol into the Repeats and Jumps palette - but can see a screenshot on there of someone who has successfully done it!

See the Handbook under "Custom palette" to learn how to customize your palettes. Basically, creating a workspace using the the button at the bottom of the palette, then drag an element (with Ctrl+Shift if dragging from your score as opposed to the Master Palette) in.

To add symbols like the 2 bar repeat from the Master Palette (keyboard shortcut is Z) to the palettes that you normally use, you must add it to a workspace which you customize and to which you enable editing.

This is fantastic. I've created my custom workspace with my most used palettes, and got the 2 bar repeat included in the Repeats palette. Awesome!
I've managed to do something else that has caused the workspace to overlap my score rather than sit beside it. Trying to work out a way to undo this.
Thanks to all the Musescore team.

@ Tom Read, speaking ... a workaround:
Select measures 1 and 2;
Edit/Bar > Join Selected Measures;
From the barlines palette drag the Short 2 span, and release it on the 5th note, double-click and extend;
A repeat bar sign on measure 3, the repeat last two bar symbol in the middle between the 3/4;
Made invisible the rest in measure 4.
It might be useful?
