How to repeat melody, but not chords

• May 4, 2022 - 19:28

I put suggested chords (Ctrl+K) above a grand staff, and wanted to repeat a one-measure melody; problem is the repeat symbol (%) was including the measure's chord. I don't care if the suggested chords are notated once I'm done writing this song, but it takes extra time for me to get rid of them.

I imagine the repeat symbol currently works the same as unpitched note heads would, so it's redundant for both to exist.

Technically: the melody is in the bass, but the stuff in the treble clef is still monophonic.

If I understand correctly, you are talking about the playback of the chord symbol? For this purpose, I'd turn off the chord symbol playback for that chord. Then if you do want to hear it (and the other chords), add them to a second invisible staff when you're done (copy/paste the chords).
