Abbreviation
Have a look at the screenshot below: Those sextuplets are all repeated 6 times. I'd like a symbol for "repeat last beat", such that one could spell out sextuplet 1 and then repeat that symbol 5 times. It would save page turns and it would actually facilitate reading the music.
I am only aware of the one called "repeat last measure" in Musescore. However this sign is often used in print or hand written music to mean "repeat last beat or last tuplet etc." The exact meaning is always easy to determine from the context.
Is there a way I can use "repeat last measure" for this purpose or else does Musescore have a symbol for it ? I never found one.

One source seems to think that a slash on later beats is OK.
You could use "simile". Easy for engraving, more involved if you want playback.
